Muga Prado Enea Gran Reserva, Rioja, Spain

The 1996 vintage of this wine earned 92 points from the wine world's foremost rating authority, Robert Parker. The blend of 80 percent Tempranillo and 20 percent Grenache, Mazuelo, and Graciano with its ruby hue "hits the palate with unexpected intensity as well as flavor authority" Parker attests. Visit Rioja in the summer during La Batalla del Vino (Battle of the Wines) when the locals—and any tourists who happen along—shoot each other with red wine, using any squirting apparatus available, until everyone is drenched.
