Spanish Rioja and Tapas for MSN Food and Drink

"Spain's Rioja wine has long been associated with British wine-lovers and today we consume a third of all the wine they produce. If you're not familiar with the region, its wine and accompanying tapas, now's a great time to get acquainted."

I am now the food and drink editor for the MSN Food and Drink website, part of Microsoft, one of the world's biggest software companies and website producers. The new website, in association with Sainsbury's supermarket, has features, recipes, tips and practical advice for a wide variety of food and drink areas.

This Spanish Rioja wine and tapas feature is my first feature for the MSN Food channel.
