Spanish Wine Guide

Glass on red wine over ledge overlooking vineyard

Spain is the world's second-largest wine producer, with over 1.2 million hectares of vineyards and more than 400 grape varieties. From the elegant Tempranillos of Rioja and Ribera del Duero to the mineral whites of Galicia and the traditional-method Cavas of Catalonia, Spain offers extraordinary range.

Spanish red wine — Rioja and Tempranillo

Tempranillo is Spain's signature red grape — 87% of the world's Tempranillo grows in Spain. Rioja is the benchmark: DO.Ca classified, blended with Grenache and Carignan. At Crianza level it delivers serious quality at accessible prices.
