Catalunya
Catalonia is arguably the most dynamic province in Spain and the epicentre of Spanish art, literature, philosophy, gastronomy, finance and culture — a province fervent about politics and religion where everyone speaks Catalan first and Spanish second, and which produced Miró, Dalí, Picasso, the architect Gaudí and the cellist Pablo Casals.
That artistry and exuberance is evident in its wines.
The province's principal wine region, the Penedès, is anchored by Barcelona, whose gastronomy and nightlife spill over and give it an edge many sleepy rural wine regions lack.
