Manzanilla Fino sherry produced around Sanlúcar de Barrameda,thicker layer of flor with more coastal aromas than a Fino. Fino Dry, pale white sherry wine biologically aged, entirely under a layer of flor. Amontillado Started with biological ageing, matured further in an oxidative way, darker colour and richer flavour than Fino. Palo Cortado Aromatic refinement of Amontillado combined with the structure and body ofan Oloroso, very delicate Oloroso. Oloroso Aged in an oxidative way after being fortified to 17 or 18 degrees, shows nutty aromas and toasted hints. Medium / Pale Cream / Cream Sweetened sherries, usually produced by blending a dry Sherry with naturally sweet Pedro Ximénez or Moscatel wines. Moscatel Similar as Pedro Ximénez but made with Moscatel de Alejandria that shows floral aromas with honeyed, raisiny palate. Pedro Ximenez Intensely sweet wines made with grapes that are dried in the sun, aromas of candied figs, chocolate and Spices.
Sanlúcar de Barrameda Manzanilla de Sanlúcar Jerez de la Frontera Cádiz El puerto De Santa Maria Atlantic Ocean Sherry Sherry is a fortified wine made from white grapes that are grown near the Sherry Triangle which comprised of cities of Jerez de la Frontera, Sanlúcar de Barrameda, and El Puerto de Santa María in Andalusia, Spain. Sherry, and the numerous styles in which it is made, represents the coming-together of four key factors: climate, soil, grape varieties and winemaking techniques. In this sun baked corner of South-west Spain, the climate is strongly influenced by both the cooling effects of the Atlantic Ocean and the warmth that originates in the eastern plains. Three particular grape variety thrives in this conditions, Palomino Fino grown in Albariza Soil which reflect light and retain moisture, Pedro Ximenez grown in Barros soil that is highly fertile and Moscatel de Alejandria found in the Arena soil. Sherry is produced in a variety of styles made primarily from the Palomino grape, ranging from light versions similar to white table wines, such as Manzanilla and Fino, to darker and heavier versions that have been allowed to oxidize as they age in barrel, such as Amontillado and Oloroso. Sweet dessert wines are also made from Pedro Ximenez or Moscatel grapes, and are sometimes blended with Palomino-based Sherries. 5

Bierzo castilla y leon Toro Ribera del Duero Rueda bierzo do The Bierzo DO is Rural and remote, lushly beautiful but little known kind of region. This former Roman mining area has a special macroclimate which is beneficial for viticulture. On the one hand it is similar to the climate of Galicia with regard to humidity and rainfall, and on the other it is also similar to the hot, dry climate of Castile. The soils in the mountains consist of a mixture of fine elements, quartz and slate. The Mencía grape, the star here, is a variety cultivated almost solely in northwestern Spain. This grape has only recently come into the spotlight as a quality, potential-laden grape variety. toro DO Wine has been made in Toro since the end of the 1st century BC, when the ancient Greeks taught the local Celtic tribes. The DO has an extreme continental climate (long, hot summers, cold winters) with Atlantic influences. The soil is formed by sediments of sand, clays and lime-bearing puddingstone, which produce dark lime-bearing topsoil, with fine and coarse sands. The vineyards are at heights of between 620 m and 750 m above sea level. Rich, ripe and powerful red wines based on the native Tinta de Toro grape, a thicker skin clone of Tempranillo, are the key highlight of this region. 21

Bierzo castilla y leon Toro Ribera del Duero Rueda ribera del duero DO Ribera del Duero DO, As its name suggests, the region follows the course of the Duero river for approximately 115 km upstream from Valladolid and is around 35 km at its widest. Ribera del Duero owes its success to a combination of factors: firstly, its terroir of schistous sub-soil bears remarkable similarity to other famous winemaking regions such as the Douro and Priorat. Secondly, its microclimate, with its high altitude, hot days and cool nights (a phenomenon known as diurnal variation ), ensures ripeness while preserving the vivacity of the fruit, aromatic flavors and refreshing acidity. Known locally as Tinto Fino to distinguish it from other nearby Tempranillo producing areas, it represents 95% of all the grapes grown in the D.O. Whereas Albillo grape is the only white variety grown, white wines being mostly destined for local consumption. 23

Emporda catalunya Costers Del Segre Priorat Penedes Montsant costers del segre Costers del Segre, which means 'the banks of the River Segre', a tributary of the Ebro, is Catalonia's most inland wine region and climatic conditions are quite unforgiving. It's semi-arid, with weather extremes. The more exposed vineyards produce grapes for Cava (Macabeo, Parellada and Xarel-lo), while the drier, warmer areas are typically planted with Ull de Llebre (Tempranillo), Garnacha, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Trepat, Monastrell, Pinot Noir and Syrah. emporda Empordà is a landscape of contrasts, situated in the far north east of Catalonia. Climate over here is Mediterranean, with influences from the moisture bearing winds from the south and cold winds from the north, especially the Tramontana, which can sometimes attain speeds of 120 km/h. The wind is quite crucial to the winemaking process as it greatly reduces the occurrence of mildew as well as pests, thus making organic farming an easier endeavour. The Empordà DO has very heterogeneous land, the majority of which has a sandy texture and low organic material content. The traditional red varieties, Carignan or Samsó are prevalent, forming the basis of Empordà viniculture, together with Garnacha Tinta (known in Empordà as Lledoner). 25

These areas are of volcanic origin which confers interesting characteristics to the soil. With the basis (called llicorella in Catalán) comprises reddish and black slate with small particles of mica, which reflects the sunlight and conserves heat. These characteristics force the roots of the vines to reach the base for water, nutrition and minerals. DOQ Priorat produces full-bodied and powerful reds from Carinena and Garnacha Tinta from the older vineyards. The traditional grape variety grown in El Priorat is the red Garnacha tinta, which is found in all the older vineyards.

rioja alavesa rioja alta rioja baja rioja Rioja is the other one of the only two winemaking regions in Spain to have received the prestigious DOCa (Denominación de Origen Calificada) classification. Rioja s viticulture history dates back over 2,000 years. The Ebro River runs through the appellation s three sub-regions Rioja Alavesa, Rioja Alta, and Rioja Baja each of which yields a unique expression of the Tempranillo grape. Rioja Alavesa is the smallest sub-zone and the coolest, wettest, and most elevated of the three areas and produces lighter-bodied wines. Rioja Alta has an Atlantic climate with calcareous clay soil with varying elevations and produce wines with structure and high acidity. Rioja Baja is primarily Mediterranean climate with alluvial soil and is the hottest and driest sub-zone, producing wines with high extract and alcohol. The classic style of Rioja reds is soft, with muted fruit, firm acidity, and aromas of dill, vanilla, and cedar. While a more modern style emphasizing more on the French oak, higher extraction, and riper, darker fruit. The most common white grape is Viura (also known as Macabeo), which is often blended with Malvasia and Garnacha Blanca to produce crisp, fruity, and aromatic wines. 29

binissalem pla i levant Mallorca With suitable land and a similar climate to the South of France, Spain and Italy, it should be no surprise that Mallorca possesses optimal vine growing conditions. Here soils are fertile with high clay and limestone content. You will also see that the earth is generally red in colour, due to the presence of iron oxide, or white due to the dominance of clay, calcium carbonate and magnesium. White wines vary from pale yellow to golden in colour and are fresh and well-balanced with fruity or floral aromas. Rosés range from pale pink to a deeper orange/red colour and are fresh and spirited. Red wines tend to be pretty full bodied, rich, earthy, complex and well-rounded. 31

andalucia Malaga malaga From the Phoenicians in the eighth century BC, the Greeks and Romans to the Moors and later the British, all of them are enthusiastic drinkers of Málaga wines. Málaga province has long been famous for its sweet fortified wines, made from the Moscatel and Pedro Ximenez that are overripe with high sugar content. Sun shines here in Malaga almost every day, even during the hardest winter. Malaga has three DOs (Denominaciones de Origen): - DO Malaga (mostly sweet white wines) - DO Sierra de Malaga (white, rose and red wines) - DO Pasas de Malaga (raisins). 37
