The Rioja region in Spain was my initial foray beyond the realm of local California wines, and it remains a cherished favorite. I’ve consistently admired the remarkable quality-to-price ratio that Rioja wines offer, coupled with their time-honored tradition of aging before release. Whenever I have the chance to sample a Rioja wine, it’s a genuine pleasure and a journey back to that first love of mine.
