Traditionally Spain’s only well-known quality wine-producing region was Rioja. Now good quality can be found in many areas throughout the country. Unfortunately demand for wines in some areas outstrips supply, leading to poor value for money. As a warm southern European country, Spain has always had great quality reds but now fresh whites and rosés are being made that are the equal of many countries.
