Look no further if you want the perfect wine to serve with seafood. Talk about a sense of place – you can almost taste the salty tang from the Galician coast in Spain's northern Rías Baíxas region, where this is produced. The grapes are largely grown in the traditional 'emparrado' method, trellised horizontally on granite posts to maximise airflow and exposure to sunlight. It's a zesty offering, with a lemon peel and grapefruit juiciness, and mouthwatering acidity.
