The Macabeo grape, also known as Viura, is one of the best-known white grape varieties in Spain. Cultivated in the eastern area of the French Pyrenees, it arrived in Spain through Catalonia and then expanded into the various Autonomous Communities such as Castilla-La Mancha, Castilla y León, Extremadura, Aragón, La Rioja, the Basque Country and the Valencian Community.
Macabeo is also the main variety in the denominations of origin of various regions, such as Rioja, Cava, Calatayud, Navarra, Penedés, Somontano and Tarragona.
With the Macabeo grape are produced white wines, sparkling wines and even some desserts.
