The transformation of the Spanish wine industry over the last 20 years has been astonishing. From a state of very considerable decay it has re-invented itself with great vigour and style. Four decades ago such reputation as the wines of Spain had rested on the declining quality of Sherry and the occasional majestic Rioja towering above the surrounding sea of mediocre, oxidised table wines. "How things have changed!" exclaims Julian Jeffs in the introduction to his valuable The Wines of Spain, the latest addition to Faber and Faber's series of wine books. Over the course of two years Jeffs put in a great deal of intensive research in Spain, travelling the length and breadth of the country, visiting growers and tasting their wines. The effort has paid off in a wealth of engrossing detail. The volume is organised into sections dealing with the main provinces or geographical regions--Aragon, Catalunya, Andalucia and so on--then within those by the individual Denominacion de Origen (DO). Within each DO the leading or most interesting bodegas are profiled, allowing Jeffs to build up a cumulative portrait of the regional characters. Especially evocative are the portions of the book dealing with the ancient and distinguished Sherry houses in Andalucia, many of them of course founded in the 18th or 19th centuries by British or Irish merchants. The account of the great Bodegas Vega Sicilia in Castilla is emblematic of the progress of the entire Spanish wine industry: Producing some of the world's finest wine up to the 1920s, it fell into poor practices and the quality and reliability of the wine suffered badly. Under the modernising current owners the wine has regained its former reputation. According to Julian Jeffs, Vega Sicilia "is on a Wagnerian scale, with all that master's subtlety and complexity." --Robin Davidson --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

There's nodoubt about it, Spain is the most exciting country in Europe when it comes towine. As Europe's second most mountainous country, with exposure to seas andoceans on every side, it's very diverse in terroir, culture, language andlifestyle. Innorthern Spain there are four main wine producing areas: Rioja, Galicia,Catalonia and Ribera del Duera in Castilla y Leon. Each is unique and producesfine wines with its own Denomination of Origin guarantee. The heart ofwine-producing northern Spain is Rioja, which has produced high quality winesfor centuries. (In the 1800s Rioja benefited from its alliance with Bordeaux,conferring technological advantages unknown to other Spanish regions.) Butquality doesn't stop in Rioja. Navarra is home to many of the most modern andcutting edge producers. Calatayud and Campo de Borja are home to some of thegreatest Grenache vineyards in the world outside of the Southern Rhone, andPriorat and the surrounding area of Montsant in Catalonia produce some of therenowned Spanish wines. Sarah JaneEvans, the world's leading authority on the wines of Spain, begins with ahistory of the region: from phylloxera, the replanting of different, andinternational, varieties through the aftermath of the Civil War and the effectson the wine industry, to recovery and innovation in late 20th century, thepromise of the 21st century and the rediscovery of indigenous varieties, aswell as a quick detour through the recent effects of the economic crisis. Shethen takes the sub-regions in turn, starting with a profile before opening outinto discussion of the key producers and their top wines. Evans' surefootedguide to the wines of northern Spain is an essential companion for anyoneinterested in Spanish wine, from students and professionals to interested winetourists.
