Through a glass brightly: that's Sara Sampedro of La Rioja Tourism at a tasting. We're in the Rioja Alta now, with more substantial wines.
A gorra is just a cap, but a boina, that's the real thing, a genuine Basque beret. Bought one at a hat shop in the prosperous business district of Vitoria, the Basque provincial capital. Could fit right in, don't you think?
Scorecard: 2 whites, 7 reds. And a Sherry.
