We are all aware of the importance of the wine sector for the Spanish economy, but also for our society, as we have already mentioned in other articles. Wine is part of our history<\/strong> and the image of our country, another attraction for tourists and a sign of identity for our industries. A symbol of tradition, but with the latest advances in innovation and research to offer the best product, it has managed to form a conglomerate of companies that have both national and international projections<\/strong>. Today we would like to take a closer look at the most important figures in this sector, the driving force behind the development of many Spanish regions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The first of the aspects we should highlight about Spain’s wine exploitation is the existing vineyard surface. In 2021, 941,086 hectares were counted, 13% of the world total<\/strong>, making us the largest vineyard in the world. Within this surface area, we can highlight that Castilla-La Mancha is the largest wine-growing region in the world<\/a>. This means that we also have one of the largest productions in the world if we add grape juice concentrate and wine. The 2020 figures stand at 37.3 million hectoliters, although production in previous years was as high as 42 million. To distribute this amount of wine, there are approximately 4,300 wineries in Spain, and more than 3,000 of them export internationally, reaching 189 countries. As we will analyze later, we have become the largest exporter of wines and grape juice concentrates<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With sales both inside and outside Spain, the wineries’ turnover reached 5,381 million euros per year. The entire value chain of wine products contributes 2.2% of the Gross Value Added<\/strong> in our country, a real economic boost. Another important aspect that is reflected in family economies is the employment generated both in the wineries and in the fields, including indirectly in the auxiliary industries. The entire sector employs more than 425,000 people<\/strong>, 2.4% of the total. As we indicated at the beginning, the wine sector is not all about tradition but looks to the future with the idea of giving the maximum. It is estimated that, on average, wineries and laboratories have invested more than 170 million euros a year in R&D projects. Finally, we cannot fail to mention the 70 Designations of Origin<\/strong> in our country, with 42 Protected Geographical Indications<\/strong>. More than 150 native grape varieties produce a wide variety of wines and grape juice concentrates under the best conditions. In fact, Spain is the world leader in organic vineyards, with 121,000 active hectares that produce more than 400,000 tons of wine grapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our commitment<\/a> is maximum, both to the farmers we work with and to the land that gives us its fruits.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\nImportant figures for the wine sector in Spain<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
