Dear amiga/o of Sabor of Spain:

Summer is over and with the first rain of the season we welcome fall and the Holiday season.  At Sabor of Spain we want to make sure you have everything covered.  We have expanded our selection of premium and value wines, hand made ceramics, gourmet foods and recipes, and unique gifts for family, friends, and colleagues. We will even organize a wine tasting party for you or your company.  This holiday season let us make your life a little bit easier!

  

“Best of Show” for one of our exclusively selected wines

Piedmont Post - October, 2004.

Our Galiciano Dia Godello 2002 was selected as one of the five best wines from a very large and impressive field at The Great Match show in San Francisco last September.

Adam has worked on expanding our wine selection to include most Spanish DOs (Denominación de Origen).

Visit us and discover our superb selection from small wineries in Spain.  We offer more than 100 wines in the store, and over 15 wines under $10.

Parker predicts the future in wine world: Spain will be the star!       
Wine Advocate - September 29th, 2004. Robert M. Parker Jr,

 “Look for Spain to continue to soar. Today it is emerging as a leader in wine quality and creativity, combining the finest characteristics of tradition with a modern and progressive winemaking philosophy. Spain, just coming out of a long period of cooperative winemaking that valued quantity over quality, has begun to recognize that it possesses many old-vine vineyards with almost unlimited potential. Spanish wineries recognize that they are trapped neither by history nor by the need to maintain the status quo that currently frustrates and inhibits so many French producers. By 2015, those areas that have traditionally produced Spain's finest wines (Ribera del Duero and Rioja) will have assumed second place behind such up-and-coming regions as Toro, Jumilla and Priorat.”

This groundswell of support for Spanish wine is an inspiration to Sabor of Spain to bring wines of great quality and value to you!
