The earliest record of wine making in Rioja dates back to 11th century B.C., when the Phoenicians settled the region.
Rioja is one of two regions that carry the "Denominación de Origen Calificada" status from Spanish regulators.
The high quality and consistency of Rioja wines is what makes them a premier wine region of Spain.
They are now known for delicious, affordable wines that could be enjoyed shortly after purchase.
