Spanish wines you can't drink in Spain
Recently I took a look at Paul Gregutt's NW wine insider post on Spanish wines.
I was struck by the realization that several of the wines on his list of recommendations would be very hard to find at the average wineshop in Spain as they come from fairly obscure wineries or regions. Also, a few of the recommendations would be next to impossible to find as they have been made for export only.
This tells me that US importers are really searching hard for new values beyond the well established brands and in some cases, working with wineries to make export-only wines.
From Paul's list, I discovered one such importer, Olé Imports, that looks to have put together quite an intriquing assortment of hard-to-find and/or custom made wines.
