Chomping at the pip, we’ve been waiting…for the Vuelta España to enter our world of wines. Stages 7-10, just southwest of Madrid, skirt the region, Castilla y Leon; and just 150km diagonally southwest of DO Ribera del Duero, sits the 8th stage finish and the beginning of stage nine. Covering one stage through the plains and two days up and down for a total of five climbs, these four days of racing in Spain end with a challenging individual time trial.
