Today, we’re continuing our exploration of all the best wines produced in the sunny and ancient country of Spain with a region that is probably covered in vineyards even more than many others in the Iberian Peninsula, and an area that makes some of the finest wines in the country even though the name of the region itself may not sound that familiar to most outside of Spain, we’re talking about the fantastic wines of Castilla y Leon around such historically-significant cities of Valladolid and Salamanca. Valladolid was once the capital city of Castilla, and Salamanca counts with one of the oldest universities in the entire world, just to name a couple of facts illustrating how this area is important in the history of Spain. Between those cities, the vineyards that covers most landscapes here are also extremely significant for the Spanish wine culture especially those from the all-mighty Ribera-del-Duero, basically arguably the best wines made in the country even though you may not have heard about them that much. Let’s change this right now and find out what they are all about.

Rioja and Ribera are probably my favorite wines all around.
I just love the characteristics of Tempranillo.
Wonderful video thank you so much, I'm learning alot and binge watching your videos . Hi from the UK! Sophie
Wonderful narration. Greetings from Spain.
I love this video very informative
Awesome info!
I always learn a lot when I watch one of you videos. I really appreciate how you focus on the terroir of each place. I think your videos are beautifully done, very interesting and informative. I watch many different wine shoes and yours bring me what I want to know. They are always packed with the most important
Information and always have very little known facts I’ve never heard or read anywhere else.🍷❤
Very nice video thank you, I drink Rioja occasionally will have to try RdD
Just found your channel. Amazing videos! Thank you for all this info.
Another great video love the region and their wines, lots of information and knowledge I really appreciate it thanks. Great work cheers 🥂
Excellent article, Julien! Amazing!
Had a lovely Psi from Pingus tonight….yeah…I’ll be getting more. Great video!
One of my favourite flavours in red wine which I often get in Spanish barrel aged wines, is that of dried fruits. I believe this comes with a slow, controlled oxidation, am I right?
What wine districts or genres should I look for to find beautifully oxidised dry reds? My best guess to date is anything Reserva or Gran Reserva from Rioja or Castilla y Leon, but not all of them fits the bill, and I'm probably missing out on other great alternatives.
Oh and great video by the way! Boy would I love a few glasses with you!
