Get to know Spanish wines better by visiting the places where they are created
With over 4,000 wineries, Spain is a land of wine. And some of the wines produced are well known the world over. Through wine you’ll discover some wonderful places and routes that are not to be missed if you like a nice glass of wine.
-
La Rioja
Fresh, aromatic and well-balanced, the wines of this Qualified Designation of Origin (DOC) are appreciated around the world. La Rioja is a land of wine, both in towns like Logroño, where you can enjoy its excellent gastronomy, and in rural areas such as Briones, where you can learn about wine among the vineyards or at the Vivanco Museum of Wine Culture.
-
El Priorat
This variety has also been awarded the Qualified Designation of Origin for its extremely high-quality wines. Dark, intense wines with a high alcohol content, born in the volcanic soil of an area rich in history, where you can visit authentic Roman ruins in Tarragona, or go to wine festivals like the one held in Falset.
-
Ribera del Duero
Tempranillo is the best-known wine produced in these lands, and it’s stored in traditional underground cellars, such as those of Aranda del Duero. Not only can you try delicious, fruity, long-lasting and full-bodied wines, you can also visit places caught in time such as Peñafiel Castle and the Monastery of Valbuena del Duero.
-
La Mancha
Dry, pale, pleasantly aromatic wines from the most extensive vineyards in the world, which cover over 400,000 hectares. However, there is much more to enjoy here: cities packed with culture, such as Toledo and Sigüenza, and nature areas such as Tablas de Daimiel Natural Park.
As you can see, Spain is a land rich in flavour and tradition, where wines are matched to perfection with cuisine, heritage and tourism.
