Excursion to the Basque Country

At the beginning of April, our customers met up for a 3-day tour of the Basque Country. A cortege of 15 Ferraris, led by the Purosangue, set off from the dealership to the south-west of France. Destination: Saint-Etienne-de-Baïgorry, gateway to a rich gastronomic valley, the Vallée des Aldudes.

Here, our Ferraristi enjoyed an aperitif and a hearty dinner on the banks of the River Nive. The following day, our Italian cortege set off along the beautiful roads of the Basque-Navarian Pyrenees to Lake Eugi. This large body of water is mainly used to supply drinking water to the Pamplona region, some twenty kilometers away.

After lunch at the Col de Gamia, our Ferrarists made their way to the cellars of Irouleguy, the Basque wine par excellence. This was followed by a visit to the Goicoechea pottery workshop in Ossès. For 3 generations, the Goicoechea family has been creating high-quality pieces inspired by the authentic and generous land of the Basque Country. Following this busy day, our customers stayed in Banca, home of a flagship gastronomic product: Banka trout.

The 3-day excursion ended the next day at the Ostalapia farm in Ahetze, with its superb mountain views.
