wines from spain
Discover the exciting world of Spanish wine: an industry booming with thousands of years of heritage, quality, diversity, and value. With over 2.9 million acres of vineyards planted, Spain is the most widely planted wine-producing nation and the third-largest producer of wine in the world followed by Italy and France.
This month we’re highlighting four wines from Spain’s Catalonia, Rìas Baixas, and Rioja wine regions. From young crisp whites to a Gran Reserva “crème de la crème” Rioja, these Old World selections are perfect for sipping in the shade, backyard grilling, or a beautiful sit-down dinner.
