Bodegas Terras Gauda, O Rosal, Rias Baixas (Spain) 2017

($21):  O Rosal, named for a sub-region of Rias Baixas, is the flagship of Bodegas Terras Gauda, one of the region’s top producers, according to their website.  The addition of Caiño and Loureiro to the blend adds roundness and complexity to the cutting spiciness that Albariño, the predominant grape of the region, brings to the table.  The resulting combination makes it ideal for hefty seafood, such as grilled sardines or swordfish.
