Castilla y Leòn

Details

Castilla y Leon, located in the northwest of Spain, is one of the nation’s most important winemaking regions. There are nine denominacions de origen (DOs) located in Castilla y Leon, including Rueda, Toro and Ribera del Duero. Castilla y Leon is actually the largest of the 17 administrative regions in Spain and the largest region of the European Union. It is the home of more than half (nearly 60 percent) of all of Spain’s heritage sites. It stretches roughly 350 kilometers (220 miles) from the center of Spain almost all the way to the north coast. Equally wide, it connects the Rioja wine region with the border of Portugal. Red wines rule in Castilla y Léon, and the Tempranillo grape variety is unquestionably the king. It is known here by various synonyms including Tinta del Pais, Tinto de Toro and Tinto Fino. It is the grape behind all of the region's finest wines except Bierzo, which makes good use of Mencia. The supporting cast includes the French varieties Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah. Castilla y Léon's white wines are far fewer in number than the reds, but only marginally less prestigious. They are made mostly from the white grapes Verdejo and Viura.
