Spain

All too often when one thinks of Spanish wine one thinks only of Rioja. However, there are many more strings to Spain's viticultural bow, and the wealth and diversity of their wines complements the rich Spanish gastronomy. Rioja, undoubtedly Spain's flagship region, is closely followed by fascinating regions such as Ribera del Duero, Rías Baixas, Priorat, Rueda, and so on. The country's revered Tempranillo grape dominates, but others, notably Garnacha, Albariño, Verdejo, Viura and a huge number of local varieties play a vital role in Spain's viticultural tapestry.
In this selection we have endeavoured to provide a varied and interesting taste of what Spain has to offer.

Marqués de Murrieta Capellanía Blanco Reserva 2003
Rioja

Made using 100% Viura, this wine comes from vineyards in La Rioja Alta, where the cooler climate is ideal for white Rioja. Matured for 21 months in American oak, the wine displays a rich and fat mouthfeel, followed by vanilla, light toast and savoury characters.

This is the perfect match to a Galician Mariscada (seafood feast) or any shellfish found on British shores.
