    Grape Information: Airén is a white wine grape variety native to Spain where it represents about 32% of the total area of vineyards. Due to its high sugar levels and large yields, it is estimated that 30% of its production is dedicated to the production of brandy. Airen was estimated to be the world's most grown grape variety in terms of planted surface area, although it is almost exclusively found in Spain. Since Airen tends to be planted at a low density, several other varieties including Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot are now planted more in terms of number of vines. Plantations of Airén are declining as it is being replaced in Spanish vineyards with various red varieties, such as Tempranillo.

    The first recorded mention of Airén was in 1615, in the 15th century it was known as Lairen (as it is in the Cordoba region today). Airen is allowed in the following DO's: Alicante, Bullas, Jumilla, La Mancha, Valdepenas and Vinos de Madrid.
