Catalonia

Catalonia encompasses a varied range of DO appellations from Costers del Segre to Tarragona. It is also the heartland of Cava, Spain's answer to Champagne, but in recent decades the region has earned a reputation for producing a diverse range of still red and white wines of impeccable quality – at their best – from an astonishing array of local and international grape varieties.
