The "Marqués de Cáceres" label is probably among THE MOST widely known Spanish wines in the world. I've seen it in the USA, in Switzerland, in France, and it's a commonly seen shelf-item here in Spanish supermarkets and wine shops. A bottle of this label Rioja crianza (non-reserva) goes for about 8-12 Euros, I'd say. It's pretty reliable.

actually that brings people in, sound like a great Bordeaux to me ::) the description>.

the more reasonable brands like marques de Caceres is a world beater, meaning its everywhere even in my local supermarket here for about 9 euros. Much improve then when they began, but no contest with alvaro Palacios....lol!!!

I just need to make a get together with a wine tasting in Madrid to get you guys into Spanowinos!!! Cheers
