If you see the word "joven" on the bottle, it's a young wine.

A roble typically has 3 to 6 months' ageing in American or Hungarian oak. A Crianza has 12 to 18 months' ageing and a Reserva has 18 to 36 months' ageing.

I wouldn't touch a young Rioja but a young Ribera Del Duero can be delightful.

Spanish whites such as Verdejo, Godello and Albarino are worth trying.

Exactly.

The one thing I learnt from wine tasting in Granada...was
you can get a decent Thpanith wine for under a tenner....
