Abstract: In recent years the European winegrowing regions have been carrying out deep changes in response to increasing international competition, outstanding the case of Spain.

An initial valuation leads us to conclude that it has been an authentic wine revolution in reference to the transformations that have occurred in a period of farming changes and technological modernization for the businesses
