Revealing the recent progress and huge developments in Spain's wine laws. John Radford takes the reader on a region-by-region tour of Spain's rapidly changing vineyards and wineries. All aspects of Spanish wines are covered in-depth, from soil types and vineyard classification to the most innovative bodegas and newest styles of red, white, and sparkling wines. Climate, geography, grape varieties, and winemaking traditions of each wine region are covered, with comprehensive producer profiles for each.

Over 150 colour photographs and specially commissioned detailed maps showing the location of all wine regions complete this indispensable book.
