This is a big, Spain anchored list, roughly 1,400 bottles built first and foremost around Rioja, where Doca Rioja, Rioja, and Rioja Alta together account for well over a hundred listings and Remírez de Ganuza is the deepest single producer at thirty wines. Red is the clear engine at 362 bottles, with strong supporting weight in Ribera del Duero and Rías Baixas, and the whites run nearly 200 deep. Beyond Spain you get real selection from the Loire and Champagne, particularly Montagne de Reims, plus Burgundy heavyweights like Domaine des Comtes Lafon, so it is not parochial. Sparkling at 110 and a dessert and fortified section of 42 give you range when a table wants to bookend a meal. The by the glass program is modest at sixteen pours, so this list rewards guests willing to commit to a bottle, and it favors a floor that knows its Spanish regions cold.
