It is with great anticipation that we can now announce our first event of the year ! One of our long standing members, Roland Machenaud has introduced us to the people in the Rioja area of Spain in and around Logrono and we have now completed a program for our first event.
Practical Information
Arrive Sunday the 25th of March and depart Thursday the 29th of March.
The region of the Rioja is centred around the town of Logrono, a well known pelgrimage stop, and about 1hr30 min South of Bilbao Airport where participating members are requested to fly in and out of. Please arrange your flight out to depart in the afternoon.
In the region, we will play Logrono Golf Club (longest Par 5 in Spain), Sojuela, Rioja Alta and if possible Izki (Seve design). There will be ample opportunity to sample the regional delicacies, none other than the Rioja wines with visits to the Vivanco (best wine museum in the world) and the Marques de Riscal wineries. The food ain't half bad neither with Northern Spain well recognised for its gastronomy.
As always, this trip is only open to confirmed EGTMA members and please indicate your interest via email to jo.maes@me.com. The EGTMA and hosts reserve the right to approve or decline participation based on their requirements for media coverage from countries they focus their marketing efforts in.
