In 1991, Rioja was awarded the DOCa status (Denominación de Origen Calificada) which recognized the premier wine region of Rioja. The wine region of La Rioja is divided into 3 parts; Rioja Alta, Rioja Alavesa and Rioja Baja, each producing a distinct type of Rioja wine. Around 85% of wines produced in La Rioja are tintos (red wines), generally comprised of a mixture of grapes, with the most dominant of these being the Tempranillo.
Tasting Notes by Nelson* : Do you know buta-niku? It means incredibly tender cooked pork from Japan. And just for those pork dishes (Japanese: buta-niku), winemaker Javier has created a wine Porkus. Storage for 12 months in barrels of American oak gives this wine a status of "Crianza". In the glass it shows a ruby red color with a seductive scent of spices and ripe fruit, cherry and roast character. Medium body wine runs with great fruit roundness and soft tannin, balance finish.
Food/Jamon Pairing : Perfect match with “Capa Negra Iberico Bellota Jamon”
