Although Spanish wines have always had a great reputation, within the last decades they have been scaling positions and gaining places among the best wines of the entire world. Spain is not only gaining places among the best wines of the world, but also, as time passes by it is producing them in a broader variety and diversity.
The Spanish region of Aragon, for example, produces amazing red wines which are becoming more and more recognized throughout the world.

The grape types of Parellada and Macabeo from which the cava Spanish wine is produced, are grown in several different spots of the country, and allow the production of some excellent wines. The Parellada grape provides its wines with a very elegant and fine color as well as with a subtle aroma and a unique taste. The grape of Macabeo is the base of a very delicate wine.
Some of the most unique and peculiar wines of Spain are produced within the region of Galicia.
