  • Wines of Spain Introduction Spanish Wine Classification Spanish Wine
    Wines of Spain Introduction Spain is the third largest wine producer in the world and has the largest land area dedicated to vineyards than any other country. Earlier, it was known for ‘sherry’ and red wines from Rioja, outside Spain. However, today, almost all its wines are well – recognized because of dedicated and continuous efforts on improving the quality. Some new wine makers are employing modern technology and introduce classic grape varieties along with native grapes, to wide range of wines. Spain has a diverse climate which gives a variety of wine styles – full – bodied wines, light wines, and sparkling wines. Sparkling wines are made in Spain using methode champenoise named Cava. Spanish Wine Classification Spanish wine classification is based on French appellation system, which not only identifies the specific area of production and the grapes used but also the minimum ageing period which is applied to all Spanish wines. Spanish Wine Areas Rioja This region makes the best known Spanish table wines, including red and white of different styles and rose. The key feature of Rioja is that it is aged for a longer period in 225 litre barricas (barrels); for instance, reds are aged as long as 15-20 years obtaining an oak flavour from the wood. The reds are mainly from tempranillo. The whites of Rioja are made chiefly viura. The three Rioja red wine classifications, as found on the front or back of Spanish wine bottle labels are as follows – • Crianza – This is fresh, fruit – flavored, youthful, red wine that is aged in oak for a minimum of one year and then kept another year for ageing in the bottle.

  • HOW DO WE FEEL ABOUT NATURAL WINE? We Drink, Breathe, and Sleep Thinking About the History of the Humble Grape and Its Importance in the World
    HOW DO WE FEEL ABOUT NATURAL WINE? We drink, breathe, and sleep thinking about the history of the humble grape and its importance in the world. Kinda a lot of pressure for a fermented beverage, but we know Wine can handle it. We’ve gone all in on natural wine because we believe in celebrating farmers and other stewards of the land who work tirelessly to create biodiverse landscapes. Think of wine as a transmitter of a certain place and time in history: if made with nothing but grapes, a bottle has the ability to tell us what the soil in the vineyard is composed of, what the weather was like in a given vintage, and what the surrounding flora and fauna are doing. Cover it up with any number of 60-plus legal chemical additives, and what are you left with? Something engineered that no longer transmits its story. There is no official definition of what natural wine is. But we have our definition, and here’s our promise: every wine on this list is grown organically or biodynamically, free of any chemicals in the vineyard. Every wine on this list is made without any additives except sulfur, which is naturally occurring in grapes. Every wine on this list is fermented with its own living, wild yeast. And every wine on this list is made in small, or very small, amounts. It’s difficult to find fault with any of that. We love these wines and the people behind them, and we hope you do too. Corkage: $20 per 750ml not on our list, limit 2 bottles per party.

  • Tio Toto Sherry Range
    TIO TOTO SHERRY RANGE by TIO TOTO SHERRY The origin of José Estevez winery goes back to Jose Lena Rendon and Co., who established in 1809 as a Sherry and Brandy producer. In 1894, Mr. Ruiz, main shareholder of the business, changed the name of the company to his own: Felix Ruiz and Ruiz, S.A. At this time the winery was shipping their wines as far as Northern Europe and South America. Since 1974 the Estevez family have managed the company and in 1984 the name was changed to Jose Estevez S.A. As a traditional family business, it was key to give priority to a thorough selection and a careful ageing of their Sherries and Brandies. In 1982, Jose Estevez de los Reyes bought a stake of shares in the Marques del Real Tesoro bodega, taking over the whole company in 1985 and injecting financial and professional support. By 1989 the Estevez family held a 95% share of the company. The same year, 1989, the Estevez family drew up a plan to merge the two companies, JOSE ESTEVEZ, S.A. and MARQUES DEL REAL TESORO, S.A., investing in brand new premises and creating their headquarters today. These buildings include the new offices, laboratories, vinification plant, ageing cellars, bottling plant and warehouses. The new facilities, equipped with top technology are one of the most modern in Spain. In addition to this, the gradual acquisition of 800 Has. of vineyards in the best plots of the Sherry D.O., has transformed the Group of companies José Estévez, S.A.
