This map is based on the work of oenologist and researcher Manuel Ruiz Hernández, who charted a very useful soil map of Rioja in the 1970s. We have added some details about the mountain chains that frame the Ebro valley as they shape Álava (Basque Country), La Rioja and a very small area of Navarra. www.spanishwinelover.com .

Maceration with skins for 25 days. REGION: La Rioja APPELLATION: D.O.C. Rioja AGING: 4-6 months in 80% French, 20% American 2nd-use barrels. Malolactic begins in GRAPES: 100% Tempranillo tank and finishes in barrel. ELEVATION: 520 m / 1,700 feet SOIL: clay-limestone WINEMAKER: Fernando Salgado AGE OF VINES: 40 years ALCOHOL: 13.5% VINEYARD: Sustainable viticulture UPC CODE: 7-37686 12001-1 THE WINE: Manually harvested from estate vineyards over 40 years of age in the Rioja Alta villages of Uruñuela, Cenicero and San Asensio. Black fruit aromas of plums and blueberries are followed by a rich and velvety palate and a lingering, refreshing finish. THE WINERY: Bodegas Martínez Corta is located in Uruñuela, in the heart of Rioja Alta. Viticulturalists for generations, the decision was made over fifty years ago to produce quality wines. Since the 1960s Martínez Corta has consistently been the most important wine estate in Uruñuela, elaborating in a medieval cellar that has remained a part of the estate. The estate includes 225 acres of old-vine Tempranillo, located in Uruñuela, Cenicero and San Asensio, all head-pruned and with a minimum age of 40 years. Vineyard parcels are typically located on high slopes poor in organic materials, maintaining elegance and minerality in the wines. A gravity-flow bodega was designed to produce fully extracted, fruit-driven wines expressing the complexity and velvet palate of the noble Tempranillo variety.

Mesolithic Dwellings in the Ebro Basin (NE Spain)
Call it home: Mesolithic dwellings in the Ebro Basin (NE Spain) Rafael Domingo, Marta Alcolea, Manuel Bea, Carlos Mazo, Lourdes Montes, Jesús Picazo, José M.ª Rodanés and Pilar Utrilla Research group Primeros pobladores del Valle del Ebro University of Zaragoza, Spain Abstract This paper summarises our knowledge of Mesolithic space management — which concerns the choice of the living place itself and the recognisable dwelling structures — in the Middle Ebro Basin, where more than fifteen accurately dated Mesolithic sites have been found and excavated in the last several decades. In the last forty years, the Ebro Basin has emerged as the most important area for the study of the Mesolithic and Early Neolithic period in the Iberian Peninsula. Dozens of recently excavated sites with hundreds of accurate radiocarbon dates offer a good panorama of the transition from traditional hunting-gathering strategies to the gradual incorporation of Neolithic innovations. Nevertheless, much remains unknown in wide areas across the basin due to poor conservation or mere research defaults, so there is still much work to do. For brevity and research tradition, this paper will be restricted to the Middle Ebro Basin. The vast majority of documented Mesolithic sites throughout the basin occupy the frequent limestone, sandstone or conglomeratic rockshelters that proliferate in the ranges flanking the north and the lower flat areas in the south. There, natural “roofed” refuges are scarce, and prehistoric groups inhabited open-air campsites. Archaeological surveys are difficult to conduct in these flat terrains due to high-scale Holocene erosive processes, which hamper our knowledge of the actual dwelling strategies in Mesolithic times.

INNERMOST RIOJA La Peña De Quel from the Terrace of Queirón
INNERMOST RIOJA La Peña de Quel from the terrace of Queirón. Queirón was conceived as the wine-growing project of the Pérez Queirón Cuevas family in Quel, in the heart of the Cidacos river valley in the sub-region of Rioja Oriental. The vineyards are located between We are Rioja, we are Quel the Yerga and La Hez mountains in the heart of the Barrio de Bo- degas de Quel, an emblematic enclave of the 18th century that Wines for pleasure represents the historical vocation of this tiny village in Rioja with respect to wine, culture and of course its soul. Queirón embodies the philosophy of the Pérez Cuevas family, who has been focused on the world of wine for four generations. Queirón is the culmination of the dream of our father, Gabriel Pé- rez, winemaker and pioneering wine entrepreneur in this area of Rioja Oriental. This project has been over a decade in the making and has silently and secretly been brought to life by Gabriel. The project has restored historical areas and vineyards in the surroun- ding areas of Quel alongside the slopes that define the Sierra de Yerga mountain range. It is a terroir that bridges its relationship with viticulture to the period of the Middle Ages, as evidenced by various documents found in the Cathedral Chapter of Calahorra, dating back to 1327. Queirón is classicism and innovation at its best, and to this end will always remain committed to making wines with soul or otherwi- se, wines that define the place from which they were born.

Aportaciones Para La Realización Del Mapa Climático De La Rioja Preparado Para La Aplicación Del Cte-Db-He
XIV INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS ON PROJECT ENGINEERING Madrid 2010 APORTACIONES PARA LA REALIZACIÓN DEL MAPA CLIMÁTICO DE LA RIOJA PREPARADO PARA LA APLICACIÓN DEL CTE-DB-HE Luis María López Ochoa Eliseo P. Vergara González Fernando Tejada Ocejo Jonatan Tejada Ocejo Alpha V. Pernía Espinoza Universidad de La Rioja ETSII de Logroño. Departamento de Ingeniería Mecánica. (La Rioja) Abstract The originality of the climate in La Rioja lies in the interference of oceanic, Mediterranean, Continental, etc, aspects. The climate varies in relation to the particular physical properties. From cold and damp mountain tops in the Sierra de la Demanda to the warm and dry lands of La Rioja Baja, there are steps of different climatic domains ranging from mountain to continental Mediterranean in the centre of the depression, with all the shadings caused by the closeness to the regulating action of the Atlantic Ocean. Based on the special nature of La Rioja and considering the sets of climate elements, various climate zones have previously been defined, accepting the existence of greater complexity in them and the difficulty of precisely defining their limits since mutual influences overlap with each other. Once the available data have been optimised, 11 climate areas have been defined, assigning an area of influence to each of the reference weather stations, extrapolating their data to the areas within their radius of action. Suitable corrections must be applied according to the difference in altitude, as specified in the Building Technical Code (BTC). Keywords: La Rioja; BTC (CTE); climate map: energy saving; optimisation Resumen La originalidad del clima de La Rioja reside en la interferencia de aspectos oceánicos, mediterráneos, continentales, etc.

El Léxico Característico De Los Valles Del Cidacos Y Del Alhama (Ii)
Kalakorikos, 10. 2005, pp.: 251-277 EL LÉXICO CARACTERÍSTICO DE LOS VALLES DEL CIDACOS Y DEL ALHAMA (II) por José María Pastor Blanco* Resumen El objeto de este artículo -parte de otro mucho más amplio, en avanzado proceso de elaboración- es mostrar la enorme riqueza léxica que encierra la Rioja Baja a partir de un reducido número de voces ordenadas alfabéticamente como si de un diccionario se tratara. Recojo en buena parte de ellas testimonios espontáneos recogidos durante la encuesta que aclaran el significado exacto de las mismas al tiempo que nos muestran rasgos morfosintácticos riojanos poco conocidos de los estudiosos y que considero del mayor interés. Finalmente me detengo en el análisis detallado de alguna de estas formas. Abstract The aim of this paper -a part of a bigger one in an advanced process of elaboration- is to show the high lexical richness of the Low Rioja, based on a certain number of alphabetically ordered words, l i k e in a dictionary. In most of these words I put down spontaneous statements gathered during the poll. Statements which express the true meaning of the words as well as their morphosyntactic traits from La Rioja, almost unknown by scholars, but of high interest. Finally I write down a detailed study of some of these forms. Continuamos el recorrido por el universo léxico de la Rioja Baja. Incorporo en es- ta ocasión todo un conjunto de voces populares desconocidas en su mayor parte de la lengua general pese a tener aquí un notable arraigo. Son formas coloquiales (arcaísmos, d i a l e c t a l i s m o s, vulgarismos) que afloran de continuo en el habla cotidiana de esta tierra y que deben preservarse como herencia que son de nuestro pasado.Veámoslo.
