Navarra: The Defiant Kingdom of Wine & Crossroads

It’s Monday, Let’s raise a glass to the beginning of another week. It’s time to unscrew, uncork or saber a bottle and let’s begin Exploring the Wine Glass!  Today, we are lace-up our boots and continuing our journey across the incredible landscapes of Spain. Now, if you think you know Spanish wine, prepare to have your mind completely blown, because today we are diving headfirst into Navarra. This isn’t just a supporting character on the Iberian Peninsula. We’re talking about an ancient, independent kingdom that is home to Europe's only true desert right alongside lush alpine mountains, a historic highway where medieval monks literally handed out free wine to weary pilgrims, and a place that is just as famous for its world-class wines as it is for pristine white asparagus. It is a region of radical contrasts, hidden old-vine treasures, and a massive wine revolution. So, pour yourself a glass of something delicious, and let's go explore the breathtaking crossroads of Navarra!  Please take a moment of your time to subscribe, rate and review Exploring the Wine Glass.
