Almost unknown to wine lovers just two decades ago, Galician wines have made a breakthrough thanks to their specific character that sets them apart from the Iberian production.
Located in the northwest of Spain, widely open to the Atlantic Ocean to the west and north, Galicia enjoys a temperate and humid climate. Its lush green landscapes contrast with the more austere interior. Most of the vineyards follow the course of the Miño River, which marks the border with Portugal. The modernization of the wineries has made it possible to take advantage of specific grape varieties such as godello and especially albariño, the Galician standard, which produces some of the most fragrant and tonic white wines in Spain in the very fashionable Rías Baixas appellation.
