Vineyards of O Rosal
The O Rosal area enjoys a privileged location within the Rias Baixas with more sun exposure and lower rainfall than other parts of this area. It is this favourable microclimate which has attracted generations of winemakers to the area and a number of the bodegas are now open to the public for visitation and an experience of winemaking and, of course, tasting.
