Tasting Class: Exploring Wines from Spain

Spain is a large country of tremendous diversity, and even the briefest glance at its physical geography, its dramatic mountain chains in particular, will serve to explain the major regional differences created by so many natural barriers. Rioja, the most famous of all Spanish wine producing areas, now comprises some 600 wineries. Its creation is largely due to the French, who came here in the late 19th century to escape phylloxera.
