Journey from Castile to the hilltop town of Laguardia, overlooking romantic La Rioja wine country. Before you reach La Rioja, visit one of the wineries along The Golden Mile. Enjoy wine tasting at AbadÃa Retuerta, a bodega housed in a 12th-century abbey. The special combination of the soil and climate along The Golden Mile, which sits on a stretch of the Duero River, create ideal conditions for wine growing. Continue to Burgos for a visit to the old town and the Gothic cathedral.
