My dream has always been to work in the wine industry. Yet it was only recently that I took the first steps to make this dream reality.
Join me on my travels as I study, taste, and demystify these sacred drops and the fascinating culture behind the wine.
Our journey begins in La Rioja, Spain.

Welcome to the start of my Sunday tastings for the next few months. I want to begin with Clunia 2009 from Bodegas Principe de Viana which is made from tempranillo variety with 12 months in French barrel. The grapes are hand picked from a vineyard located at an altitude of 900 meters near Burgos.
This 2009 Tempranillo recently won a Silver Tempranillo award from the Tempranillos al Mundo award ceremony held this past November in NYC.
9.1/10: Great value for money at 14 dollars in the US or 9 Euros in Spain.Please continue to join me for the next few Sunday tastings! Cheers!
