A few quick notes from Spain:
I have always found that the wines from any country in the world taste better when you drink them on their home soil. So far, Spain has been no exception. The wines I have had (Rose, Tempranillo (Crianza), Garnacha) have all be delicious and perfect for the heat and the cooler evenings.
The heat is HOT, but luckily dry. Not like that sweltering humidity in New York City...
