If you travel southeast or southwest of Spain’s capital, you’ll find yourself in the heart of Madrid’s wine country. Although Madrid’s wine history goes back to the 13th century, the Vinos de Madrid DO itself is quite young, dating only to 1990.

The Vinos de Madrid DO is best known for young wines, including whites, rosés and reds. Traditional sobremadre wines - red and white wines which are made with the destemmed, pressed grapes as well as their must - are also produced here, as are red and white sparkling wines.
