About this region

The wine region villages of Aragon are distributed across various comarcas, each contributing distinct characteristics to the region's viticultural landscape. The comarca of Aragón itself is home to Huesca (altitude 488m), a city where visitors can sample Ternasco de Aragón and longaniza de Graus in the traditional tascas around El Coso. To the southwest, in the same comarca, lies Calatayud (altitude 530m), celebrated for its fruits from the Jalón valley, especially the Melocotón de Calatayud DOP, alongside its Mudéjar architecture. Further east, Monzón (altitude 273m), in the comarca of Cinca Medio, features a Templar castle where Jaime I el Conquistador was educated. Here, the local cuisine includes Longaniza de Monzón and chiretas aragonesas. Barbastro (altitude 341m), in the Somontano comarca, offers a blend of Renaissance architecture and the flavours of Somontano wine paired with local ternasco lamb. The westernmost Tarazona (altitude 480m), within the comarca of Tarazona y el Moncayo, presents a unique fusion of styles in its Mudéjar cathedral, a UNESCO site, complemented by traditional dishes like cardo con almendras and cordero a la pastora, reflecting the Queiles valley's agricultural bounty. These villages provide an immersive experience into Aragon's diverse cultural and culinary heritage, all interwoven with the region's wine production.
