Penedès

Penedès is a wine-producing region with the Spanish Denominación de Origen Protegida (DOP) (Denominació d'Origen Protegida in Catalan). Penedès PDO includes the entire Penedès region and the municipalities of four other comarques: Anoia, Alt Camp, Baix Llobregat and Tarragonès. The area is framed by the coastal hills of the Serra del Garraf and the higher inland mountains that surround the Central Catalan Depression. Long considered one of Spain's best wine-producing regions after Rioja, it is also one of the oldest wine-growing areas in Europe. However, the region is better known for the production of Cava, a sparkling wine that has had its own Denominació d'Origen since 1986.
