Rioja Appellation Wine Tasting

June 22, 2010Porter House Restaurant

Rioja inManhattan

Pleasing your senses.Wine gives La Rioja its name; it forms the basis

of our wealth and is an essential part of our cultu-

re. The thousand-year old winemaking tradition,

passed down from generation to generation, is

kept alive and with the application of new te-

chnology to the traditional vinification methods,

wine from the Rioja appellation can be increasin-

gly more widely appreciated.

We are pleased to present a special selection of

these wines from some of the best Rioja cellars

– some of them over a hundred years’ old, some

modern, others small family concerns – all of

them offering excellent products which will allow

you to taste some of the world’s most attractive

wines.

The Rioja “Designation of Origin” is the oldest in

Spain (it has been guaranteeing the quality of its

wines since 1926), and has the added “Qualified”

character (similar to a “Cru Classé”), bestowing

upon wines from Rioja the highest official seal

of excellence.

The most widely grown grape is the Tempranillo.

Considered the jewel among Spanish wines, it is

indigenous to the Rioja region and is the most

characteristic variety of the appellation, the cor-

nerstone of the identity of its red wines and one

of the world’s great noble grapes. It occupies over

75% of the cultivated area and enologically it is

very versatile, capable of producing wines which

can be aged for long periods, with a good balan-

ce of alcoholic strength, color and acidity and a

very open, supple, fruity taste, which becomes

velvety smooth and mellow as it ages.

Bodegas Fuenmayor

Bodegas Fuenmayor was born out of an initiative of a group of businessmen linked to the Rioja wine

sector. It is located in the heart of La Rioja in Fuenmayor and its grapes come from the town that bears

its name and where wine is an undisputable part of the culture and knowledge of its people. Bodegas

Fuenmayor takes the utmost care, combining design with tradition, in which the passion for our wine

is to be found in every corner. Our winery is a reflection of that passion. A very special place for us

because it is steeped in all the efforts and enthusiasm of a large project that is also our dream. At Bo-

degas Fuenmayor, tradition and new technologies come together to improve our maturation process.

We seek to achieve a result reflecting our exceptional care down to the last detail.
