Abanilla was a Spanish geographical indication for
Vino de la Tierra wines located in the autonomous region of
Murcia. Vino de la Tierra is one step below the mainstream
Denominación de Origen indication on the Spanish wine quality ladder.
The area covered by this geographical indication comprised the municipalities
Abanilla and
Fortuna, in the east of the region of Murcia. It acquired its Vino de la Tierra status in 2003.[1] but it later disappeared when the last winery closed down.
Wine in the area is now labelled under the
IGP Murcia appellation.
