The Rías Baixas wine route is characterized by offering a complete wine tourism experience, as it is one of the most traditional routes in Spain, as it has been working for two decades to offer you quality wine tourism. Perhaps the most important differentiating feature of this route compared to the rest of Spain is that the Rías Baixas wine route offers you wine tourism at sea. If you visit their wineries, you will not only be able to enjoy wine in the middle of the ocean, but you will also be able to participate in life at sea in different ways, such as shellfishing for the first time. In addition, they are also specialists in adventure wine tourism, so there are many experiences of this type, such as cycling routes. If you are thinking of coming, do it, because this is a route of sea, of Galician pazos with spectacular gardens that can also be visited, and of very tasty food, such as octopus and turnip greens, of very good quality and with a lot of flavor of the Galician lands.
The wines of the Rías Baixas are known as 'seafood wines', and usually come from artisanal wineries, but not always. The vineyards are located in plots with trellises and espalier vines. The climate is Atlantic and the soils are generally shallow and sandy. The largest production area is in the Salnés region.
The star wine of this area is the Alvarinho wine, made with the grape of the same name, which is the main grape, although in this area you can also find other grapes such as Treixadura, Caíño, Torrontés and Godelo.
The Alvariño wine is a dry, fresh and smooth white wine, straw yellow in color, ideal for Galician fish and seafood.
