From fruity, hands-off reds to full-bodied Tempranillos, the Rioja region defines Spanish wines Save to Read Later
Spain is known for its rustic fare and equally earthy wines, and no region has defined Spanish wine more profoundly over time than Rioja.
Opinion
Spain is known for its rustic fare and equally earthy wines, and no region has defined Spanish wine more profoundly over time than Rioja.
Located inland in northern Spain, Rioja is sheltered from most of the cooling maritime influences of the Atlantic Ocean by the Cantabrian mountains. The bulk of the vineyards in Rioja line the banks of the region’s Ebro River, and most of these vineyards are planted with the region’s signature red wine grape Tempranillo. When well-made, Tempranillo-based wines deliver tart red and black berry flavours, earthy and cedar notes along with plenty of acidity and tannin, meaning the best examples have solid mid- to longer-term cellaring potential.

“Coronavirus is just not winetasting conducive!” Those are the words on the website of Michael Schuster, perhaps the most respected wine educator in the UK, explaining, almost apologetically, why he is not currently taking bookings for his much-loved, long-running courses in the City of London.
You can see what Schuster means. Hundreds of wine courses and clubs that used to run each week all over the country – not to mention large-scale events with audiences running in the hundreds or thousands such as Tesco’s Wine Fairs or
Decanter magazine’s Fine Wine Encounters – have not been in session for the best part of a year. With all that spitting and slurping, they’re the definition of a super-spreader event.

We’ve rounded up 10 brilliant Riojas from this year’s Rioja Masters competition, taking in the top-scorers from a range of styles including white and red, young and old, while revealing some bargains on sale right now.
Our 10-strong selection below has been chosen to highlight the wonders of Rioja, which manages to craft inexpensive, fruity and juicy reds at amazing prices; serious, concentrated drops for important occasions, and fine, fully-mature, unique wines without charging the earth.
It’s also why our featured wines incorporate those that have spent barely any time ageing in oak barrels to those that have benefitted from several years, and it’s why the bottles below include some that are priced a little more than £5, to others than cost almost 20 times that sum.
