Make a Splash With Spanish Wines

Looking to bring something new to the table? Look to Spain. Its enticing, exciting range of reds, whites, sangrias, sherries and sparkling wines is guaranteed to add some unexpected colour to your next gathering.

In the land of flamenco and fiestas, people are passionate about winemaking. In fact, more acres are dedicated to grape-growing here than any other country. From cool, oceanside vineyards in the north to sunny Mediterranean vineyards in the south and mountaineer highlands and rivers in between, there’s a lot to explore.

Tempranillo, Spain’s signature grape, is behind many delicious reds recognized for tell-tale notes of cherry and spice, while the second most planted grape Garnacha creates smooth wines filled with jammy fruits. 

When it comes to summer-worthy whites, as well as fruity, fizzy cava ⏤ the Champagne of Spain ⏤ and sherry, its flagship fortified wine, there’s Albariño with intense peach and citrus flavours and Verdejo with its crisp medley of melon and grapefruit.

Next time you’re looking for the perfect red for a barbecue, a chilled summer sipper or something special to serve a crowd, liven things up and add a little Spanish flavour to the mix.
