This year’s edition presents an important novelty regarding monovarietal wines.
The wines of Spain have a new cataloging and segmentation in the new edition of the Digital Wine Guide Wine up! 2016. As in previous editions of the Wine up! Guide, the author gives us a detailed account of the wide variety of peninsular wines where we can find more than a thousand of them, cataloged, tasted and scored, along with the wide variety of distillates that they are also included in it.
In total there are 1039 wines and spirits tasted, with an average score and price of 90,47 points and € 12,68 per bottle.
The work is the result of the enormous work and experience of Joaquín Parra, who by tasting and detailing the result has made an important reference for national wines in terms of value and category.
The character of the year that stars in this section of the guide is Mr. Antonio Flores, winemaker and master blender of the González Byass company.
The objective pursued by the guide is to bring the world of wines and its various products closer to all consumers, whether they are professionals or people unrelated to the oenological world, but if they are lovers of this universe of colors, aromas and flavors.
The idea of knowing first-hand the data of many wines from innumerable wineries is an excellent panorama to be able to appreciate them from the prism of tasting in the three main phases of this, the Visual, the Olfactory and the Gustative.
