President John Sloggie introduced the speaker Matthias Pawlita who is the export area manager for the bodega. Bodegas Patrocinio is the driving force behind Uru\u00f1uela a town of 967 residents located in the heart of Rioja Alta. They started out as 200 grape growers with small vineyards in Uru\u00f1uela who decided in 1985 to join forces to produce and market their own wines and so the co-operative Bodegas Patrocinio was born. 70% of the vineyards are located in Uru\u00f1uela and the rest between the neighbouring municipalities of Cenicero and Hu\u00e9rcanos and they benefit from the typical Rioja Alta climate which is predominantly Mediterranean with significant Atlantic influences. We were set to taste 4 wines one white, and three reds. Three of the wines were from their brand Lagrimas de Mar\u00eda, which was created in 2008 and named after their oenologist Mar\u00eda Martinez. The fourth wine was from their Zinio range created in 2005 as a new range of high quality wines from a select group of their oldest plots. The cost of each wine and where it can be purchased and average score given by members is shown in the list of wines tasted in 2017, which can be found by clicking on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbws.eu\/archive\/wines-tasted-in-2016-1\/\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Wines Tasted in 2017<\/span>.<\/a> A full report on the tasting can be found by going on the website at <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">cbws.eu<\/span> or by clicking on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbws.eu\/archive\/16th-november-ca-la-iaia-moraira\/\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">November Tasting.<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Membership Renewal<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It is Membership renewal time, please make your payment of 20\u20ac per person to our bank account at : BBVA Bank .A\/c No. 08504414 <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">IBAN: ES77 0182 3216 6302 08504414 BIC Code: BBVAESMM Account name: Costa Blanca Wine Society<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Please be sure to write your name <\/strong>(not what it is) in the \u201cconcepto\u201d box otherwise we do not know who has made the payment.
