Wales to host its first-ever Rioja Day

SPAIN’S most famous export is making a splash in Wales as Swansea celebrates its first Rioja Day.

The Swansea Business Improvement District teamed up with the city council and local businesses to encourage people to book a table in a city centre restaurant to enjoy lunch and an accompanying glass of Rioja, the famous Spanish red wine.

They hope to sync the day with the Day of La Rioja in the Spanish town of the same name.
