In the past several years, Spanish wine has taken the International market by storm, measuring up to French and Californian varieties. Spain was at one time almost unknown in the wine market, but over the past couple of decades, Spanish wine has made a name for itself. Improved production techniques, harvest control, care for the fruit’s flavor and aromas as well as the infrastructure of the wineries have all helped boost Spain and put it in the forefront of the best wines in the world!

From full-bodied Sherries and muscatels to dry whites and reds, Spanish wine has become the popular choice at many dinner tables and restaurants. Even wine novices might have heard of some well-known Spanish selections like Rioja, Ribera del Duero, Penedés, Rueda, Sherries (a sweet, thick wine) from Jerez, and cava – a Spanish sparkling wine that rivals France’s champagne!
