Spain, the third-largest wine producer globally with over one million acres of the country covered in vineyards,  each showcasing unique viticultural treasures. There are 69 officially recognized wine regions in Spain. The mainstream areas are referred to as Denominaciones de Origen D.O, which are similar to France’s appellations, and the wine produced here is carefully regulated for quality according to specific laws.

Prominent among them is the iconic Rioja, famed for its exceptional Tempranillo-based wines. Aragon, though less known, has recently gained recognition for its quality wines, particularly those from Somontano DO and the delightful Garnacha wines from Campo de Borja, Calatayud, and Cariñena DOs. From the effervescent Cava in Penedès to the robust Priorat and the crisp Albariño wines of Rías Baixas, Spain's wine regions offer a remarkable wine adventure.
