Cangas del Narcea Wine Museum

Millennial viticultural history

Although the humidity we have in the Cantabrian Sea is not conducive to wine harvests, in Cangas del Narcea there is a unique microclimate, abounding a vineyard full of native varieties. Its wines have a protected designation of origin. The result is an unmistakable wine: floral and fruity aromas typical of the grape varieties; broths with a clean, bright and transparent appearance.
