Andalucia

Andalucia

Andalucia, fondly known as the land of light, is not only a haven for sun worshipers, but is also renowned as a prominent wine region in Spain. Nestled in the southern part of the country, this region upholds a longstanding tradition of winemaking that dates back to the Phoenician period over 3,000 years ago.

The diverse microclimates and unique regional terroirs of Andalucia open up an array of possibilities for wine cultivation, from the high-altitude white wine vineyards in Sierras de Malaga to the sun-baked Sherry vineyards in Jerez. The region's wine production exhibits a stunning range of styles that reflect its varied topography and climate.

Perhaps the most globally recognised wine from Andalucía is Sherry, a fortified wine that comes in various styles, from the elegantly dry Fino and Manzanilla to the rich and sweet Pedro Ximenez. Made from the region's white Palomino grapes, Sherry's distinctive characters are developed during its prolonged aging under a cap of yeast, known as 'flor'.

Yet, Andalucia's wine diversity goes beyond Sherry. The region also produces robust reds and crisp whites, including those from the elusive grape variety, Moscatel, used to create the sweet wines 'Moscatel de Alejandria' or 'Moscatel de Malaga'. Additionally noteworthy are the attractive red wines made from Tempranillo grapes in the area of Sierras de Malaga.

Andalucian wines are typically enjoyed with the region's abundant, flavour-packed tapas. The wines' varying levels of richness, depth, and acidity beautifully complement Andalucia's gastronomy, from succulent Iberian ham to freshly caught seafood.

Regardless of its rich wine production history, Andalucia remains an underappreciated wine region, offering a multitude of intriguing and high-quality wines. This charming corner of Spain invites wine enthusiasts everywhere to explore its captivating vineyards and discover the treasure trove of its viniculture.
