**Penedès** sits in Catalonia in north-east Spain, inland from Barcelona, and is best known as the homeland of Cava, Spain's traditional-method sparkling wine. **Wines & grapes** — The classic sparkling blend rests on the local trio of Macabeo, Xarel·lo and Parellada, while still wines range from crisp whites to reds made from both Spanish and international grapes such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay. **Character** — Vineyards climb from the coastal plain up to cooler hillside terraces, and that spread of altitudes lets growers ripen everything from fresh sparkling-base whites to fuller reds. Penedès has long had a reputation for innovation and was an early Spanish adopter of modern winemaking and international varieties.
