Dive into the rich history, laws, and grapes of Spanish wine before exploring Green Spain’s coastal regions, where crisp Albariño, elegant Godello, and vibrant Mencía showcase a fresh side of Spanish winemaking.
Discover Spanish wine history, wine labeling, geography, climate, grape varieties, viticulture and winemaking in depth. Learn the latest on Spanish wine laws and new research on grape vine origins.
Then dive into Green Spain! Spain is normally associated with the production of red wine, but the four regions comprising Green Spain—Galicia, Cantabria, Asturias, and País Vasco—craft some of Spain’s most interesting and unique whites. Local grapes such as Albariño, Godello, Treixadura, and Hondarribi Zuri stand in the spotlight, with the exciting red variety, Mencía, moving ever closer to center stage. This dynamic region redefines the preconceptions of what Spain has to offer the global wine market.
