Special WSA Member Tasting - The Wines of Lopez de Heredia


Thankfully there are still a few old school Rioja produces out there making the heavily oxidized, American oak-influenced Riojas that defined this historic region. And Lopez de Heredia is certainly on top of that pack. In this tasting we will explore this unique winemaker's line up from white to rosé to Crianza, Reserva and Gran Reserva reds. If you haven't tasted Old School Rioja before, prepare to have your wine world rocked!

As a special thank you to our WSA members, this tasting will only be $5 ($20 for everyone else). We hope you can make it!

Friday, August 19, 2011. 5-7pm. Drop in anytime and stay as long as you like.

* Can you identify this picture? These are Lopez de Heredia wine bottles undergoing extended (and dusty aging). They are released when the producer determines they are ready to drink - the Old School Rioja way!
