Region
Rías Baixas Location and climate: A beautiful green area, Rías Baixas has been likened to a vision of the Garden of Eden. The cool, damp climate is dominated by its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean; however, there are varying micro-climates within the five different designated sub-zones of the region.
Condado do Tea sub-zone: “Tea County” is named after the river Tea, a tributary of the Miño River. Located in a fairly mountainous area along the Miño, this is the second largest sub-zone. The most inland, it is a warmer, drier area, with an average temperature of 15º C that can soar to 40º C during the summer. Soils contain granite and slate.
