Spain’s oldest formalized wine-producing region, Rioja is also one of her most dynamic at the moment. There is a new emphasis on specific vineyard sites, and younger winemakers are crafting wines with singular character. Expect more minerality and freshness - and much less oak! While still very tempranillo-centric and unmistakably Rioja, this post- modern style is garnering abundant fans and media attention for its brilliance and balance. Join Deborah Hansen as she samples six wines that will update your notion of Rioja!
