“Did you know that Spain has more grape vines than anywhere else in the world?” Our Gurus told us, “you can pretty much stick a pin in the map of Spain and not be far from a vineyard.” Pick any region and you’ll find vines growing, even the Canary Islands. Naturally some regions stand out more than others: Galicia, for Rias Baixas and Albarino wines; Catalonia, south of Barcelona, noted for Cava and Priorat; Andalucia for sherry; and, perhaps most famously, Rioja for its eponymous, full-bodied wines. And these centres of wine production are where the majority of recommendations for the best wine hotels in Spain will be found. Our selection includes architectural masterpieces, wine resorts, converted castles and much more — there's definitely something here for every taste and budget!
