Localization: Rías Baixas, Galicia, Spain
Tasting Notes: This white wine has aromas of ripe grapefruit, lemons, and other citrus, accompanied by soft notes of tropical fruit, ripe peach, and delicate aromas of confectioner’s custard. Perfectly balanced on the palate, this white wine is characteristically vibrant with a lively acidity and a long finish.
The Domain: Following the wine-growing revolution in Galicia that was triggered by the setting-up of the D.O. Rías Baixas designation of origin, José María Fonseca, the winery’s current Chairman, began to see the wine world more clearly and from his position on the Board managed and supported the development of wine-growing and enology courses, as well as a host of partnerships related to the art of winemaking.
From a private initiative spurred by the setting-up of Viñedos do Rosal and Adegas das Eiras, the founding partners’ original dream of making a firm commitment to O Rosal wines began to be realized. The winery’s philosophy was that Albariño, being such a noble variety, could benefit greatly from a union with other native strains to provide it with subtle new qualities and further enhance the already strong reputation of O Rosal wines.
Over the years, the original two companies have merged into one, called - logically, given the prestige and recognition achieved by our leading brand - Bodegas Terras Gauda, meaning "joyous land."
