White wines D.O. Rías Baixas are wines made in the coastal region of northwest Spain known as Galicia, specifically in the Rías Baixas sub-zone, which covers the Atlantic coast from the mouth of the Miño River to the Arousa estuary.
The white grape used par excellence in the production of D.O. Rías Baixas is the Albariño, a native variety of the region that is characterized by its freshness, acidity and aromas of citrus and tropical fruits, with a floral background. In addition, you can also find wines made with other varieties such as Treixadura, Godello, Loureira or Caíño Blanco.
White wines D.O. Rías Baixas are usually fresh, light and highly aromatic, with balanced acidity and pronounced minerality due to the region's granite soil. Most of these wines are dry, although some semi-sweet wines are also made.
The elaboration of these wines is carried out through a process of cold vinification and fermentation in stainless steel, which allows to preserve the aromatic characteristics and the freshness of the grape. Some producers also use oak barrels to add complexity and structure to the wines.
In summary, white wines D.O. Rías Baixas are fresh, aromatic wines with balanced acidity, made mainly from the Albariño grape. These wines are ideal to accompany shellfish and fish and are highly valued for their quality and uniqueness.
