The 10 Magnificents of the DO Rías Baixas. The sea of Atlantic wines
Last year, the ‘Magnificent 7’ was too small for us to review the excellence of the wines from the Spanish designations of origin that are the protagonists of this great tasting in the Príncipe room of the Fira de Barcelona exhibition centre in Montjuic. The 7 became 10 with the DO Ribera del Duero. In this fifth edition of the Barcelona Wine Week, 10 wonderful wines have been selected, most of them white, but also a red and even a sparkling wine, from a DO Rías Baixas that continues to grow with wines that constantly gain more prestige driven by the pull that Spanish white wine is experiencing. The journalist and sommelier Ramon Francàs has selected from among fifty wines with an Atlantic soul the ten Magnificents that will star in this unrepeatable journey. The evolution of Rías Baixas wines has been extraordinary since their take-off on the market, which began in the 1980s, and continues unstoppable today.
