This Unsung Spanish Destination Has More Acres Of Vineyards Than Any Other Wine Region In The World
Going further to Valdepeñas, regularly considered the beating heart of La Mancha's wine regions, will take just over two hours in the car from the capital's Adolfo Suárez Madrid–Barajas Airport. Bordered by the lynx-stalked Sierra Morena mountain range in the south and the lavender-scented wilds of La Alcarria region in the north, La Mancha encompasses a huge cut-out of Central Spain.

Why side-pull taps are changing the way we drink beer
Walk into the right taproom on a Tuesday night and you might spot something a bartender treats less like a chore and more like a small ritual. A stainless faucet turned sideways. A deliberate pour building layer by layer, foam rising ahead of the beer beneath it. This is the side-pull faucet, a piece of Czech brewing culture that has quietly been finding its way onto bar tops well beyond its homeland. It's a two-handed pour, unhurried by design: one hand steadies the glass while the other coaxes the handle open in small increments, reading the foam as it builds. The question worth asking is whether this changes how beer actually tastes, or simply how it looks in the glass. Read on as beer educator Ryan Guererri goes deeper into the details behind the side-pull tap and whether it does make a difference. What makes a side-pull tap different?

A Tour of Wine Grapes: Sangiovese
Sangiovese 🍷 Photo by Agne27 on Wikimedia Commons Sangiovese is the most widely planted red wine grape in Italy. The name comes from Latin words meaning " the blood of Jupiter ," which shows that people have grown it since ancient Roman times. Its main home is the Tuscany region of Italy, where winemakers use it to make famous wines like Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino. Today, farmers also grow this grape in other warm parts of the world, including California, Washington State, and South Australia. Aromas include red cherry, strawberry, and dried herbs. On the palate, it has flavors of tart cherry, plum and blackberry. It is naturally high in acidity, which makes the wine taste crisp. It also has medium-high tannins. The aging potential of the wine depends on how the winemaker made it. Simple, inexpensive bottles are meant to be consumed within 3 to 5 years of the harvest. High-quality bottles can age in a cellar for 10 to 20 years. Serve Sangiovese at 60°F to 65°F (15°C to 18°C).
