Bespoke Journeys in Northern Spain
Where Atlantic Cliffs and Ancient Vineyards Shape Northern Spain’s Most Expressive Landscapes
This is a journey shaped by two forces — ocean and vine.
Along the Basque coast, terraced vineyards rise above dramatic cliffs, shaped by salt air and centuries of tradition. Inland, Rioja’s historic cellars and quiet medieval towns reveal a culture where wine is not simply produced, but lived.
Moving from Atlantic shores to vineyard-covered hills, this journey connects coastal beauty, exceptional gastronomy and private access to the people and places that define Northern Spain’s wine culture.

Where Vineyards Meet the Atlantic
Your journey begins along one of the most beautiful stretches of coastline in Europe. Walking between fishing villages and terraced vineyards overlooking the Cantabrian Sea, you experience a landscape shaped equally by nature and human craft.
In a historic seaside town, medieval streets and working harbours reveal centuries of maritime tradition. A private encounter with a local fishing family offers rare insight into a way of life still deeply connected to the sea, shared over freshly prepared seafood and local wine.
Where Wine Reflects the Ocean
Today explores the unique relationship between coastal vineyards and Atlantic influence. At a private winery overlooking the sea, you discover how climate, soil and tradition shape the distinctive character of txakoli wine.
Lunch follows at a traditional Basque grill, where exceptional local ingredients are prepared over open flame — a defining expression of Basque culinary culture.
Later, in an elegant coastal city, a private guided walk reveals grand architecture, historic boulevards and a vibrant culinary scene. Moving between handpicked pintxo bars, you experience the creativity and precision that define modern Basque gastronomy.
Where Land and Sea Become One
Along dramatic cliffs shaped over millions of years, you walk through a landscape where geology, ocean and time converge. From the water, a private boat reveals the full scale of this extraordinary coastline.
Your journey continues to an exceptional riverside restaurant, where seasonal ingredients and local wines create a dining experience defined by place, simplicity and refinement.
