Se trata de un texto dentro de una guia de vinos. Además de hablar de los tipos de vino, habla también de cómo se forma una institución dentro de este sector, es decir de una Consejo Regulador de la denominación de origen.
el contexto es el siguiente:
"Para el cumplimiento de sus tareas, el Consejo Regulador de la Denominación de Origen está compuesto por 16 vocales, que representan los sectores de la viticultura, los elaboradores, embotelladores y exportadores. De estos vocales sale elegido el Presidente, que es ratificado en su cargo por la Consejería de Agricultura de la Junta de Comunidades.

Department of Agriculture of the Regional Government
I assume it is referring to the "Junta de Comunidades de Castilla-La Mancha", which I have always translated (and seen translated by others) as the Regional Government of Castilla-La Mancha (95 hits on google).
"In an unprecedented move the Regional Government of Castilla-La Mancha, one of the 17 autonomous regions in which Spain is politically divided, has granted the status of Single-Estate Appellations ('Denominación de Origen de Pagos Vitícolas Determinados') for quality wines to two estates in the region"

Just to clarify the issue for those unfamiliar with Spain\'s system: the country is divided into 17 autonomous communities or regions, each of which has its own regional government, which have different names: \"Xunta\" in Galicia, the \"Junta\" in Andalucía, the \"Generalitat\" in Catalonia and in this case, \"Junta de Comunidades\". In turn, each regional government consists of several \"consejerías\", (consejería de educacion, consejería de industria, consejería de agricultura, etc.), so the equivalent for both the UK and US would be \"Department\" (Department of Education, department of Industry, etc.).
Hope that helps.
