Spain is home to some of the world's largest area of vineyards, and is one of the largest producers of wine by volume. The variety and quality of many of these wines is vast, and offers many affordable treasures. Powerhouse regions like Rioja produce some of Spain's most emblematic reds, which are bold and can age for many decades. Jerez is home to many fortified styles of wines, and also a nascent unfortified scene is burgeoning. Cava is produced in various regions around the country, offering both great value and nuanced wines of place. Rías Baixas has a maritime climate that produces increasing interesting Albariños, but also medium-bodied reds such as Mencia. With so many vineyards, regions, grapes, and climates, Spain truly offers wealth of wines.
