Spain
Spain is one of the world’s most diverse and historic wine-producing nations, renowned for its regional character and exceptional value. From the sun-drenched plains of La Mancha to the cool Atlantic coast of Galicia, its varied climates and soils yield an extraordinary range of styles.
Tempranillo remains the country’s flagship red, defining the elegant, age-worthy wines of Rioja and Ribera del Duero. Garnacha, Monastrell, and Mencía add vibrant fruit and spice, while Albariño from Rías Baixas brings crisp, oceanic freshness to Spain’s whites. Verdejo and Godello further showcase the country’s growing sophistication in white winemaking.
Beyond still wines, Spain is celebrated for its fortified and aromatized treasures—most notably Sherry from Jerez, with its complex nutty and saline character, and Vermouth, traditionally crafted in Catalonia and gaining new global acclaim. Together, these wines express Spain’s rich heritage, innovation, and enduring passion for craftsmanship and flavor.

This combination of altitude, old vines and complex geology gives an incredibly intricate, ethereal and spell-binding wine.
It`s clearly more Mediterranean, with notes of rockrose and other aromatic herbs, juicy and round, more fruit-driven, aromatic, velvety and very pleasant and easy to drink. - Luis Gutierrez 93 points
