Calatayud is a Denominación de Origen (DO) located in the Aragón region of Spain, primarily known for its red wines. The appellation is characterized by its high altitude vineyards, which benefit from a continental climate with significant temperature variations between day and night. The region's soils are predominantly clay and limestone, contributing to the complexity of the wines produced. Calatayud has a historical significance in Spanish viticulture, with evidence of winemaking dating back to Roman times.
