Wines

In recent years, Spanish wine growers have increased their plantings of the international varietals. And, in some regions, there’s also a trend toward labeling wines according to their varietals. Even so, most Spanish wines are blended from varietals that are native to Spain and are only cultivated here.

Local Varietals

  • Temparnillo
  • Albariño
  • Garnacha (The Spanish name for the grape that is known in France as Grenache.)
  • Macabeo
  • Airén
  • Malvasia
  • Verdejo
