Wine production in Spain
Spanish wine classification.
With 78 sub-regions of wine production across 17 provinces in the country, Spanish wines have the classification of Denominación de Origen (DO) and Denominación de Origen Calificada (DOC). These two classifications control wineries in meeting stringent requirements to produce quality wine. The DOC designation is of the highest quality. Currently, only two regions have met DOC requirements in Spain, Rioja and Priorat. In Catalonia, it is referred to as DOQ Priorat due to the Catalan language spelling and pronunciation.
Even though Spain is the third-largest producer of wine, the country cultivates and manages 400 grape varieties. Although, 80% of the country's bulk wine production derives from only 20 grapes and this includes:
Tempranillo.
Garnacha.
Monastrell.
Albariño.
Palomin.
Airen.
Macabeo.
Parellada.
Xarel-lo.
The most widely planted is Airen, a white wine grape that is valued for a variety of reasons including its hardiness. Second is Tempranillo, the popular grape of Rioja, followed closely by Garnacha which is planted throughout Spain but mostly known internationally due to the Catalan region of Priorat.
