Navarre Wine Route

In general, wines from Navarre are aromatic, with fruity flavours and a good balance between the alcohol content and acidity and smoothness on the palate. The white wines have yellow tones, fine bouquets and fresh flavours. For their part, the rosé wines have a well-deserved fame thanks to their distinctive personality: they are dry, fresh and delicate. The red wines produced in this Designation of Origin are equally exquisite. The region’s most prevalent grape is the Garnacha variety.

This route runs through the centre of the Navarre region in northern Spain. There are many forms of transport you can use to travel to this region.
