Location of the Rodrigo Méndez estate

The estate's vineyards are not typical of this ocean-facing region of Spain. Part of it is located in the mountains, surrounded by pine forests. Another part is located on the coast, at a lower altitude. Rodrigo Méndez relies on his family's vineyards, which include century-old albariño vines. The terroir and microclimate give the estate's wines their Atlantic character.
