The wine region of Rioja
Rioja, in northern Spain, is best known for its berry-flavored, barrel-aged red wines made from Tempranillo and Garnacha. It is probably the leading wine region in Spain. It is certainly the most famous, rivaling only Jerez. The Vineyards follow the course of the Ebro for a hundred kilometres between the towns of Haro and Alfaro.
The word of the wine: Sweet (flavor)
The flavour provided by the residual sugars naturally present in the wine as well as by certain alcohols. This sensation can range from a simple impression of smoothness to a clear sweetness. We speak of roundness, fatness and mellowness.
