Valencia is a province in the centre of Spain's sunny east coast, perhaps better known for its oranges (and paella) than its wine. The administrative Center of Valencia is the city of the same name, the third largest in Spain and the largest port on the Mediterranean.

In modern times, Valencia's wine production has focused on quantity rather than quality, although this is gradually changing.
