<p>Racks and racks of wines from all over the world line the showroom at Suarez Distributors in San Juan, Puerto Rico </p>
Some of the Wines at Suarez Distributors
 <p>Quite the selection of wines here. We found a 1964 bottle of Port, but at over $500, it was a bit much for our budget. There are many more reasonably priced bottles here though, featuring every grape variety imaginable. </p>
And Even More Wines
 <p>Nice bit of bubbly for Jennifer and Marcia </p>

Our Wine Tasting Mentors
<p>Our wine tasting consisted of 12 wines - three sets of years (1999, 2000, 2001), all from Spain, of two types: Rioja and Cata Ribera del Duero. </p>

Wine Tasting - Close-Up
 <p>The front label of a bottle of Pagos Viejos 1999, the first wine we tried. A Rioja. We were told the name means “Old Wine” in Spanish. Neither Linda nor I liked this particular wine. </p>

 <p>The front label of a bottle of Amaren 1999, the third wine we tried. A Rioja made with Tempranillo grapes. We both thought this wine would be a good one with food, but not so great by itself. </p>
