About this Event
Rioja (pronounced ree-OH-hah), is a wine named for the region in which it is made – Rioja, Spain! It is the country’s most famous wine. The region is a designated DOCa (Denominación de Origen Calificada), which is the highest category of Spanish wine classification. There are some tasty white and rosé wines here, but it is the reds that reign supreme. Red Rioja is made predominantly from a local red grape called tempranillo. There are four different categories of Rioja, which all depend on the amount of time the wines spend in oak and when they are released to the public. We’ll sample a variety of styles including joven, crianza, reserva and gran reserva, while enjoying them alongside some traditional tapas!
