With almost a million hectares of vineyards and 138 officially recognised wine regions, Spain is one of the world’s biggest-hitting wine producers.
For a long time most of the world knew little beyond the output of its most prolific wineries, yet this has changed dramatically. Now, there’s a greater appetite for regional grapes encouraged by a new wave of diverse, vibrant producers who continue to gild Spain’s global reputation.
The stark contrasts between Spain’s cool and wet north and the hot and arid south are what make Spain’s output impressively diverse.
Paul Belcher, owner of The Tapas Rooms in London, says: “Spanish wine will always be associated with the likes of rioja and ribera del duero, and these regions will always make amazing wines. But people’s tastes are changing and there are also plenty of winemakers throwing away the rulebook and making unusual, exciting and often amazing wines.
“Spain has become the number one producer of biodynamic and organic wines and we see no sign of this trend slowing down.”
He continues. “I expect 2021 to be full of weird and wonderful orange wines, pet nats and rediscovered grape varieties from days of yore.”

To provide a snapshot of the best Spanish wines on the market we sampled a wide range of styles and budgets, considering the output of both established and up-and-coming producers, pairing them with a variety of foods along the way.
