Celebrate with Rioja Wine Gifts - The Perfect Pour for Every Occasion A complex year, with a cold, humid spring, then rain and hail in summer, with the risk of downy mildew and a long, late harvest. Needed much work in sorting and selection. Overall, wines with slightly lower alcohols.mcpepper85 A favourite Great every day wine that also works for many different meals and cheese. A favourite in our house Where they differ significantly is in blending. Traditionally Rioja has been more like Bordeaux, blending across the region, both varieties and vineyards. So while Tempranillo is king in Rioja, it is often blended with Garnacha, Graciano and Mazuelo. There are some distinguished single-varietal Garnachas and Gracianos, but they are rare indeed. Shift of emphasis Look at the map of Rioja and you could be in Burgundy, more or less. Turn Rioja 90 degrees and it shares a similar shape, measuring 100km by 40km. There’s the influence of the rivers – the Ebro, in Rioja’s case. Mountains – to Rioja’s north, the Sierra de Cantabria, and to the south, the Sierra de la Demanda – give slopes and various aspects. Burgundy runs north-south and Rioja almost east-west, but the two share immense diversity. A very difficult year, with April frosts that swept northern Europe, followed by drought. One of the earliest vintages on record. The Penusco Rioja 2015 is a red wine that transcends the ordinary. Born of Spain's finest Tempranillo and Garnacha grapes, it radiates a depth of flavour, richness, and complexity, embodying the very spirit of the Rioja wine tradition.

The Best Marques de los Rios Rioja Reserva,13.5%: £6.75, Morrisons

Rioja is the best-known wine region in Spain and is a successful, recognisable brand. What brands have is the comfort factor. The uncomfortable grit in the oyster is this: as consumers we demand ‘affordable wines’, but should the most famous wine region in Spain be selling itself cheap – and is it even sustainable?
