Pago Otazu is a prestigious and historic wine estate located at the northern limit of the Navarra wine region in Spain. The property is home to some of the oldest vineyards in Spain, first planted during the Roman times.
'Pago' is a Spanish classification for high-quality wines and 'Otazu' is the name of the region. As such, Pago Otazu is recognized for producing high-quality and unique wines that reflect the distinct terroir of the region.
The winery itself is a blend of history, craftsmanship, and the latest technology in winemaking. Its modern installations coexist with a 16th-century palace and a 12th-century Romanesque church, creating a beautiful contrast between tradition and innovation.
Pago Otazu produces a range of red and white wines, primarily using international grape varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. These wines are known for their intense color, complexity and richness in flavors, setting them apart from typical Spanish wines.
The house also possesses an impressive collection of modern art that is on display at the property, earning it the designation as the northernmost "wine cathedral" in Spain, a term used to describe wineries that combine wine, architecture, and art.
