Introducing Galicia, Spain's Atlantic secret, and right now, one of the most exciting wine regions in the world.
There’s a corner of Spain that will make you question everything you think you know about Spanish wine. Mist-rolling Atlantic valleys, terraced vineyards carved into near-vertical canyon walls, a lush green landscape so Celtic in character — complete with bagpipes — that you could be forgiven for thinking you’d landed in the Scottish Highlands.
Galicia, on Spain's wild Atlantic coast, is producing wines of genuine excitement: Albariño is growing at 5% and commanding a higher average price premium over other whites; Godello drawing comparisons to white Burgundy; and Mencía landing elegantly between Pinot Noir and Syrah at ready to seize the moment consumers are looking for lighter, fresher reds.
This is a region with stories to tell; from ancient terraced vineyards, near-vertical canyon walls, and a landscape more reminiscent of Scotland than Spain. And stories like these sell bottles.
We've gathered a selection of outstanding Galician wines to help you capture the opportunity: wines with real provenance, genuine consumer pull, and the kind of discovery factor that keeps customers coming back.
