The leading wine region of Spain, Rioja, produces predominantly red wines in the north of the country. Named after the río (river) Oja, a tributary of the river Ebro, most of the Rioja wine region lies in the autonomous region of La Rioja in north east Spain, although parts of the zone extend into the neighboring Basque country to the north west and Navarra to the north east.  After the Christian reconquest of the 15th century, the viticulture of Rioja flourished and is presently quite successful in the production of Spanish wines. Rioja wines are typically a blend of Tempranillo, Garnacha, Mazuelo, and Graciano, although many notable producers bottle wines of exclusively Tempranillo.
