Valdeorras

The wine tradition of Valdeorras dates back to Roman times. Valdeorras is one of the oldest Denominations of Origin that exist (the second oldest in Galicia), recognized by Ministerial Order in 1945. This denomination covers the municipalities of A Rúa, Carballeda de Valdeorras, Larouco, O Barco, O Bolo, Petín , Rubiá and Vilamartín, located in the north-eastern part of the province of Orense.

In this area the climate is drier than in the rest of Galicia, mixing the Atlantic influence with features of the continental. The average temperature is about 11ºC and the rainfall rate ranges between 850 and 1000 mm per year. The soils of this area are very diverse. We found shallow and slatesoils, granitic soils with abundant sand. This wide range of soils favors the production of monovarietal wines from Godello and Mencía. In the Godello white, the most emblematic wine, we can find fruity aromas, with a straw yellow color and a good entrance and structure in the mouth. Regarding the Mencía, of an intense purple color, light and tasty wines, with a good balance and perfect to accompany a great variety of gastronomic recipes of the area. The Valdeorras Denomination of Origin also produces other white and red varieties such as Garnacha Tintorera, Tempranillo or Palomino grape.

Valdeorras is a name that stands out for its great innovation and implementation of new technologies, which has managed to modernize its production process, thus achieving the Valdeorras wines to be among the best in Spain and exported to the rest of the world.
