The more than 600 vineyards, sprawled across the picturesque green rolling hills of La Rioja, Navarra and Basque Country in northern Spain, are not as visited as those of California and France but certainly should be. The World’s Best Vineyards awards were held in Rioja last month and a Rioja vineyard, Marqués de Riscal, took second place.

From the bold and fruity flavors of Crianzas to the more complex profiles of aged Gran Reservas, the tastings offer a delightful journey through the diverse region.
