Description

Rías Baixas, Northwest Spain, where the Atlantic Ocean meets ancient granite to create Spain's most electric white wines. This isn't the sunny Spain you know, it's Green Spain.

In this episode of the Terroir & Soul series, discover the secret of "Xabre" soil, why vines climb high on pergolas to survive the rain, and how Albariño evolved from a peasant secret to a world-class icon of tension and salinity.

Perfect for WSET & CMS students and curious drinkers alike.
