They’ve got to be some of the greatest quality-to-price wines on the planet. Before my Wife and I discovered Spanish Cava we drank less than 10% of the sparkling wine we do now…and because of Cava, sparkling wines have moved from a special occasion wine to a frequent wine for us. Some of our favs are Cristalino (Brut and Rose), Segura Viudas Aria, and even Freixenet is very drinkable…and all of these are locally available for only $4.99-6.99! And, when I think of great drinking values like Abadia Retuerta, Bodegas Castano Solanera, Capcanes Mas Donis, Las Rocas Granacha, and the incredibly low cost and highly likable Protocolo…how can they sell that for only $4.99!? We even recently had a great Portal bottling called Pinol Sacra Natura that was under $15 and great drinking. All of these wines are winners and none of them “break-the-bank�. I would very much like to hear Ryan’s opinion on these wines and about any tips he can provided for Iberian wines to keep a watch for in 2007. Thanks, Sips (Rob) Tim,

"Iberian wines" should say "wines of the Iberian Peninsula." For those who are not that good with geography, it is the countries of Spain, Portugal and Andorra (and the island of Gibraltar, if you really want to get pedantic about it). You know, just south of France ;-) I'll amend my post to be a bit more specific. And I will leave your comment up instead of moderating it as SPAM because I did see a kernel of conversational value... nice one.
