This Week at D&L Liquors
 
Spanish vineyard 
 Spotlight on Spain
Whether its a Tempranillo from the finest bodegas in the Rioja or one from the Ribera del Duora, a spicy powerful Monastrell from Jumilla, a Calatayud Garnache, or a sparkling Catalunyan Cava,  wines from Spain  offer diversity in value and tastes whether you're buying "drink now" wines or looking to build out your wine cellar with age-worthy wines.
 
A handy tip for shopping for age-worthy Spanish wines is to look for the terms Crianza, Reserva, or Gran Reserva on the label. For example, in Rioja and the Ribera del Duero, Crianza wines are two years old, with at least twelve months spent in cask (elsewhere the oak aging may legally be restricted to just six months). Reservas are three years old (at least one year in cask), Gran Reservas five years old (two in cask, three in bottle). For youthful wines you may see the term vino joven on the label. Translation is young wine.
 
Whatever your wine preference, come to D&L Liquors and check out our ever-expanding Spanish wine section. Browse through our 120+ Spanish wines to select your own, or let our friendly, educated staff help you choose one. You're sure to find something to please both your pocketbook and your palate!
 
Here are just a few of the staff and customer favorites ranging from $10.99 to $31.99:
 
-Numanthia '06 "Termes" - a Wine Spectator 93 pointer for $31.99! 100% Tempranillo from Toro.
 
-Tres Picos '08 Garnacha - $16.99 - A huge customer favorite. Big nose and a long finish on this wine.
 
-Volver 2005 - $18.99 - Staff favorite! 100% Tempranillo from La Mancha. The formula is adverse, dry growing area + gnarly, stressed vines = amazing wine at a great price.
 
-Luzon 2008 - $10.99. A big, food friendly & drink anytime wine from Jumilla. Monastrell & syrah blend.
