Collectible Gems from Spain and Portugal

Today's Newsletter takes us to two of the world's most traditional yet dynamic wine countries—Spain and Portugal. K&L buyer Kirk Walker brings his trademark indefatigable enthusiasm for these inimitable wines and producers in this highlight tutorial of his favorite current releases.

Hidden gems and reference-point stalwarts lead the way in a thrilling survey of the unbeatable collectible value of the great wines of Rioja. We follow that with a double feature on two of the most popular estates in our Direct Import program making their triumphant return after a brief absence. A pair of vintage ports from a historic quinta provide cellar cornerstone longevity, and finally, we introduce you to one of our very finest recent discoveries in boutique, cult-caliber Old World wine.
