Valencia is famous for its wine production; many of its wines are exported overseas for use in restaurants, or for personal use. Valencia's weather climate and soil consistencies form the perfect conditions for wine production.

Wine is a delicacy to be served with meals and on special occasions. Valencia is well known for its fiestas and celebrations throughout the year, so wine is often a part Valencia's lifestyle.

Knowing which type of wine to select with your meal, or to give as a present is important, as you will want to compliment your dinner with the right wine, or surprise your guest with a wine that suits their tastes.

Essentially, there are types of wine and all of some of these are more suitable to certain types of foods than others. White wines usually go well with white meat dishes, such as fish and chicken, while red wines traditionally go with red meat and pasta dishes.

Generally, there are sweet and dry wines, which can be found in both white and red wine varieties. If you are looking for a sweet white wine you might choose a Riesling. Leaving the grapes on the grape vines for a longer period of time makes sweet wines.

When looking for a sweet red wine you might try a merlot, or a cabernet sauvignon, both of which a delightful sweet red wine varieties. If looking for a dry white wine, you might try a Pinot Noir, or Sauvignon Blanc and if looking for a dry red wine you might try a Shiraz.

All wines should be chilled either in a fridge, or bucket of ice, prior to drinking, as this allows you to derive the most benefit from the wines flavors and experience. Also, most consumable wines are designed to be drunk within a few years from being made, so if you are buying wine for your cellar, keep this in mind.

Well, now that you know a little bit more about wines, you can enjoy Valencia's wines by making the right choices. Valencia wines can be sampled in its many restaurants and also at the Spanish Wine Festival, known as the 'La Rioja Wine Festival'.

The 'La Rioja Wine Festival' Wine Festival is a celebration of Spanish wines and, during this time, there are events and wine tasting, dinners and lots of merriment. Valencia also holds many fiestas throughout the year, which feature food and wine, such as the 'La Tomatina' Fiesta and the 'Fiesta Fallas de San Jose'.

Sweet Sherries Items For Viewing

Dunn Vineyards


"The formidable 2001 Californian Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain boasts an inky/purple color to the rim, and smells like blackberry liquer intermixed with acacia flowers. With extraordinary intensity, power, richness, and purity, it looks to be one of the greatest efforts made by Randy Dunn. Since none of the Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignons (first released in 1979) are close to full maturity, this 2001 dry red wine will probably need 8-10 years of cellaring; it should last for 3-4 decades. An interesting point of trivia is that Randy Dunn's production of approximately 4,000 cases of Napa and Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon per year has not changed since the winery's inception ... somewhat refreshing in view of the American cultural tendency to think that "bigger is better".

It was Paul's turn to cook dinner tonight. Actually that isn't completely true. He generally cooks on the weekend but he was away on Saturday night and I was away on Sunday night so he decided to go to town over the stove tonight. Interestingly enough though, we almost ended up with frozen pizza for dinner - they were handing them at the train station. Talk about a riot inducing activity - hand out free frozen pizzas (the full sized ones!) to a group of tired commuters. What a great way to get

This weekend was one of the best I've had since this Summer!! My BFF Michelle and I went on a scrapbook getaway with a few other fabulous and talented ladies. The weekend started Friday night when Michael and I dropped Wesley and Lani off at his sisters for a sleepover. We decided to celebrate my birthday a few days early since we had a sitter. Michelle, her husband Dan and a few of their friends met at a restaurant in Manchester called Unwined. There was a live jazz band, a crazy amount of win

Fredrik - Na Na Ni

The Kora Records It’s obvious from the first moments of Na Na Ni that Fredrik is a Swedish band. For some reason, it’s usually artists from the far North who are able to make me feel a certain way, which is both content and slightly sad at once. The album’s opening track, “Black Fur,” is nearly three minutes of melodic, jingly, indie pop that inspires you both to sing along and to lay back on your bed and stare out the window at the fall landscapes. “Evil and I” is a beautifully sad little fol
