Rioja- Spain's Finest - Toronto Event
Spain's finest bottles and most celebrated wine region is RIOJA. Home to the legendary Tempranillo grape, Rioja offers bottles that are rich, complex, and perfect for any occasion. From bold reds to elegant reservas, these wines are a testament to centuries of tradition and craftsmanship. But it's not just the wines that captivate; the region itself is a feast for the senses. Rolling vineyards, picturesque medieval villages, and the unique terroir of clay, limestone, and alluvial soils create a symphony of flavors in every glass. Whether you're a seasoned wine lover or just starting your journey, Rioja is a destination you’ll want to sip, savor, and explore. 🍷✨

i didn't think Chubby's has a star. It's a Michelin "selected" restaurant.. one step below the bib gourmand.
You may be right - will look into that! Loved the food though.
You make me want to visit.
It’s a place made for great food and wine adventures. It’s a lovely place to visit.
honestly you should it is a fabulous place
How’s that area for tourism?
It’s great, excellent food and wine, great hotels and lots to see and do.
once you are in the region you can get around easily and from the cities of Haro and Logrono, everything can easily connect you to wineries to visit. It is a great place to visit
Do they do whites or sparkling in Rioja.
Absolutely and they’re really nice as well.
they do, not the true bread and butter of the region, so to speak. But there is sparkling and white region wines as well
Rioja is definitely a place we want to visit.
We think it's a great part of the world and people love it. So it come highly recommended.
Honestly I have loved it there every time I have gone and highly recommend going
You win, I will now try Rioja wines.
Yes resistance is futile. Seriously though, these wines will win you over.
hahaha so happy I have convinced you
Interesting to find out about the Rioja regions
You’re so right, t’s a very diverse region.
Happy to be of wine help!
Seems like a lot going on in these wines.
Rioja is definitely a dynamic region with lots going on -- the wines are all so distinct.
there it, these wine are great at expression terroir and regional winemaking styles all in one
It’s cool you’re doing so much Rioja.
It’s a great region and it’s really nice when we get to dig deep in two video back-to-back.
Thank you! it is such a great region to really dive into
Are these good with turkey?
Yes, maybe people love Rioja with turkey. Happy holidays.
they sure are!
Just Picked up a bottle of McKenzie Empire Rye after having it in "several" Old Fashions at the 1833 In Aurora amazingly good!!!
Wonderful 😊😊😊😊
Thanks for watching - we appreciate it!
thank you!!!!!!!!
Worst video
Love this!!!! ❤
Thanks!
Same here!
I first found out about this winery in your other video. Cool.
Thanks, we had a really tremendous response to that video. Glad you like it.
Oh thank you so much
I would love these under my tree.
We understand and feel the same.
I already did!
Thanks for adding links.
Hey, that’s our job--unite wine lovers with great wine.
Any time, sorry fo the delay
any chance we can order these for ourselves?
What happens on Pelee Island Winery’s website stays on Pelee Island’s website.😀
Wel I know I am lol
Can you have them delivered to your giftees address?
Absolutely, that’s why you can do all your adult gifting in a half hour on all one website!
I belive so but I would check with the winery
Love your channel.
Aww we’re blushing.
Thank you so much!
I had no idea about this winery, but love these boxes.
The Christmas boxes are really amazing, but the wine is just as good.
Right?! Are they not prefect for the holidays
Those mini bottles look great.
We totally agree, they are very cool.
They are just so fun
I think these are cool ideas for corporate gifts.
Absolutely, especially if we’re on your list.
They really are!
this is a neat winery
They are, they have a really interesting story, have vineyards in a very unique place, and make great wine.
Aren't they great!
I am such a fan. Now I have to head to the LCBO LOL.
Let us know which wines you like best.
You really must there are so many great wines there to enjoy
Thank you for posting! I have tried many wines from every continent and always come back to Rioja. I am a big fan of Lopez de Heredia and La Rioja Alta and every time you tasted and smiled, I knew exactly how you felt! I have a 2004 Bosconia Gran Reserva which I am going to open for Thanksgiving. Cheers.
Thanks, there’s a reason we did this video.. and you get it. It’s all in the feelings!
WOW that is an amazing wine and it sounds like you have had a fabulous thanksgiving!
I checked the LCBO site, one was out of stock. I am going to try some, thx!
All are great and keep checking on availability. Thanks for watching.
Oh no, some of these are so good they sell out fast so get them ASAP and keep and eye out for them again in 2025
Love from india (kolkata) 😊😊😊
Thank you
I love 🍷wine
Then you're in the right place!
Same here !
Wow great value for the time spent aging vs price.
You know what they say, time = money. So in this case Rioja wines really offer great value.
Seriously this is one of the reasons why I LOVE Rioja wines
I love the stories behind the wines.
Yes they are all different and so many have some great histories, they’re very interesting.
Me too, they are always so captivating
OK time to explore Rioja wines.
We think you’ll be suitably impressed.
So happy I have moved the needle for you
These seem like great hostess gifts for a holiday party.
Absolutely.
They most certainly are!
'tis the season for some tasty reds--thanks!
Renee will weigh in but yes, these are very delicious and pair with so many types of foods, they’re perfect for holiday entertaining.
You got that right
So would any of these go with turkey?
We’ll let Renee weigh in on this, as we’re the web team, but we can confirm that a Gran Reserva with turkey and all the trimmings is AMAZING! And that comes from personal experience 🦃.
The first 3 would be great with Turkey
I didn't realize there was so much history in Rioja.
It’s a great region to explore in person--the history, wines, cuisine and scenery are all really special.
There is so much more to dive into, I will have to do a whole video about it another day
seems like these are good wines for the holidays.
Yes for both entertaining and gifting. But don’t forget to also treat yourself while you’re shopping.
You got that right!
Is Rioja a good place to visit and see wineries?
Yes but only if you like great wine, delicious food, great accommodations, friendly people and lots of things to see and do.
It is a fabulous place that you should 100% visit
How can they produce wines this old, so affordably?
Our only guess is magic, but perhaps Renee has a few more specific ideas.
Honestly it has to do with the wineries having a long history and many of which having large enough stock to forward those cheaper prices. but it is really amazing and unique to Rioja
Are most of these still worth laying down after buying?
Again it’s a question for Renee, but usually yes, even though Riojas are drinkable now, for select ones, they are definitely worth laying down to bring out for a special occasion in the future.
I would say that you can 100% drink the Conde Grand Reserva but the other can be either laid down or drunk now
Amazing….This is an amazing gift idea for your clients to think of you through the holidays. I love the review of the wines. When I send out my gifts I am including the link to this tantalizing video so that my clients can fully appreciate thiese wines and be the star of entertaining this holiday season to know what cuisine to pare these wines with. A Super Big Thank You, Renee!!!
The two wines look pretty tasty.
We have it on good authority the entire selection of 12 375 ml bottles are “pretty tasty”.
They are!
Wait this is a winery in Canada? So cool. I want to go.
You can visit on the mainland in Kingsville, ON or their Pavilion right on the island. The island makes an amazing day trip. Here is a link to help you plan: www.peleeisland.com/contact-us/
It is and a great lace to visit
What a cool gift for... a big wine fan.
We agree and of course you can buy two as you are probably a big wine fan as well :-)
Is it available in the LCBO too?
Absolutely, right here: www.lcbo.com/en/pelee-island-advent-calendar-2022-39243
I believe it will be
Can this be shipped to the US?
I would reach out to Pelee through their website just to check for your specific state
Connect with the winery here: www.peleeisland.com/contact-us/
I live in MI & never knew there was a winery there.
There is and it’ve very close. You can visit their Kingsville site which is on the mainland. It’s only about 45 mins from the border.
Can you say what the other bottle are?
I unfortunately can not, I can't ruin the surprise
This is such a neat idea, I love the surprise.
Thanks Lucy, we think it’s pretty cool too.
I totally need to bring my partner there next summer.
it is a great place to visit
Yes it’s a great place to visit. The island is really amazing.
