A great experience, unlike any visit from another winery - I recommend everyone to visit Solar de Samaniego and especially the night visit. Not only because of the high quality wines, but also because it is an experience. Marta immersed us fully in the history of the winery and in her lay motif "Drinking between the lines". The tanks leave you amazed and more the story behind them. And what about dinner, where the grilled chops stand out. Just exceptional.

Wonderful winery - An exceptional experience, a winery that is definitely worth visiting. The artistic level is very high! Marta carries a passion in her blood; you can tell she cares a lot about what she does.

I think it is reflected in the previous question. - It was all very well and endearing, but perhaps for those of us who had already been to the winery several times the appointment was too early for the duration of the event. Everything else as in all our visits to the winery was very nice

Food in the cellar not to recommend - The food wasn't very good, the menu now with the one from other years has dropped a lot. In quality and variety. I think for dinner you can't put as starters some normal peas and some chives piled in a small container. Poor quality chorizo potatoes, some whole potatoes and no good chorizo. Chops are the only thing that could be saved. Not to mention the service, the bread was served with our hand and other details that I prefer not to comment. On the contrary Marta the guide to the visit charming as always. I have to say that I have been a brother of the winery for about 30 years and I have gone through several stages and I have never felt this feeling of discomfort.

Wine as always spectacular, never disappoints, dinner event, disappointing. - The experience disappointed us quite a lot, first the dinner theme, a cocktail dinner was offered standing and not at all, the tables were located in such a way that most people sat around them, staying a few standing that we had to go almost to ask those tables for food and a time came that was in a hurry to take anything because everyone looked at you. That was the uncomfortable thing, but of course the bad thing was really called cocktail to that presentation and dinner service, since we found, first with the glass of wine in one hand and with the free hand you had to: serve yourself the food, hold the plate, the cutlery and already how you could eat, some brothy peas impossible to hold and already the ribs with the same hand as you had the plate and the fork. I always understood a cocktail where you are served bartenders the food on a plate and if it is standing all, (there may be exceptions for health and sitting) or all sitting. And the truth that the quality of the dinner also left much to be desired, I consider it of terrible quality, for the category of the winery.

Deception. They seduced us with an attractive offer that was a real mockery. - On 22-11-2025 we were invited to an event to mark the CENTENARY D.O.C.A .RIOJA, IN THE WINERY OF SOLAR DE SAMANIEGO, as brothers. We were seduced with the prospect of a very interesting and select evening having participated in the purchase of a special selection for this reason. we booked hotels in Logroño and traveled from Madrid, in anticipation of snowfall and polar weather, because of the attraction of what we assumed would be special that evening. After hearing a very bad introduction, without any interesting value or content (by a young gentleman), who finally tried to be funny saying that there was a lot of food, that there would be for everyone, disaster struck, there was no order, there was not enough crockery, or cutlery, you had to use the same dish for all the meals, it was as if the animals were fed, people took the dishes, leaving the table without food and some people had no choice but to take them by hand. The advertised cocktail became a barbecue, type that are made free at village parties, without any quality, the most select was the pancetta. And finally, the dessert trays of packaged products Christmas of those who sell to the weight. It was a disappointment, a frustration so it took that trip exclusively made to attend the event
