Casa del Cofrade is the first WINE CELLAR - HOTEL in La
Rioja. It was originated in the premises of Bodegas Vinícola
Real in the town of Albelda de Iregua, only 15 km of distance
from Logroño, capital of La Rioja. Albelda de Iregua's History goes back to the X century. During those days, San Martín of Albelda Monastery had already been built and it was as important as the famous Yuso and Suso Monasteries in San Millán de la Cogolla. In San Martín Monastery that there were around 200 monks, that's why the flagship of Bodegas Vinícola Real´s wine is "200 Monges", with "g", because of old writing. In this Monastery the famous Albeldense or Vigilano Codex was written, and their pictures have been used to name the Hotel rooms, like "La Rosa de los Vientos", "La Cruz de los Ángeles", "La Tentación" etc...

Email: vinicolareal@vinicolareal.com Bodegas Vinícola Real was created by two brothers born in Albelda: Miguel Ángel and Rubén Rodríguez Ruiz. On the occasion of renovating a picnic area, it emerged the idea of producing wine according their taste, it is the wine named "200 Monges". They produce only reserva wine. Later, it emerged the idea of building the Hotel, following the French château idea. La Casa del Cofrade offers all their customers the wine cellar visit: a tour of the wine production facilities and caves in the mountain that are full of wine bottles and barrels, going to the spectacular dining room that it’s the origin of all.
