The best way to taste Spanish wine is to travel there and to experience it first hand! in this travel vlog I take you with me to La Rioja and Bodegas Ramon Bilbao who was cool enough to sponsor this video.
When I traveled I stayed in Logroño for the most part. But Haro could also be a great option if you want to go!
I had a blast, tasting all kinds of wines. Red, white and sparkling! But the king of Rioja will always be Tempranillo. I also got to know more about the local grape varietals that are some times blended with it (Garnacha, Greciano, Manzuelo and the green grape Viura).
A big thanks to Ana Frias Lara for being our tour guide and taking care of us during the stay. If you want to see a video where I interviewed her about Crianza and Gran Reserva wines, click here:
