As winter inexorably approaches our shores to darken our doors, we choose to go (at least in our heads) to where it happens to be departing, i.e. the other side of the world or, more precisely, Spain. Come with us, why dontcha, as we traverse the country via its various DOs, or Denominacións de Origen (the Spanish vinous equivalent to the French appellation system), stopping on the way to check out what the locals are making to drink, and, perhaps, in a country where food and wine are so intrinsically linked, what they happen to be eating.
