France and Italy get more than their fair share of the glory for European wine, but Spain is not to be forgotten! Our #FridayFlight this week showcases the scope of the Spanish wine industry, and the many beautiful bottles they produce. From Cava to Sherry, Spain has a wine for every part of the meal, and they offer delicious flavors at unbeatable prices. Come taste for yourself! #Salud
