As simple as that.

ok we're getting somewhere.
- Languedoc ( Syrah + Grenage ).
Murcia and Alicante/Valencia produces some decent Syrah/Garnacha wines for a good price, but you probably wont find them out of the region.
There are some nice Garnachas from Aragon for 10euros +
If you dont like the usual Spanish wines, they're mainly tempranillo (Rioja/Toro), so avoid that grape.
Spain's pretty good at telling you the grape, not like France where they expect you to know.
If you find yourself in Barca again, try the gourmet club of the corte ingles, they will have a decent variety with a fair few under 20 euros.
