Atlantic multi-varietal white from O Rosal

  • Innovation Area
Cien Rosas is a traditional white wine from O Rosal, made from a classic local blend of Albariño, Torrontés, and Caiño Blanco. It comes from a landscape strongly shaped by the Atlantic, where the proximity to the sea, the soils, and the ocean breeze lend freshness, tension, and character to the wines. This multi-varietal blend reflects the historic identity of the region: Albariño brings aromatic intensity and vibrancy, Torrontés adds floral depth and nuance, and Caiño Blanco contributes structure and character. The result is an expressive, fresh, and balanced wine with a mineral profile and a clear Atlantic personality, designed to be enjoyed young and paired with the local cuisine.

One family, five appellations. A project united by the rivers that run through Galicia and that trace an imaginary line that connects our vineyards and feeds them. 

 

It all began in 1940, when Manuel Méndez and Maruja Otero opened Casa Penouzos in Chantada (Lugo), a wine shop that was then the trigger for a relationship that would be continued years later by Javier Méndez and Ana María Rojo, parents of Juan Luis Méndez Rojo. In this same line, and as a special tribute to his parents and to his beloved land of origin, a project is started which he names and protects with his own surnames: Méndez-Rojo; a project that reflects the trajectory, the years of experience and the knowledge of the sector, offering excellent brands of Galician wines.  

 

We start from the respect and admiration for the environment, seeking to pay tribute to the land and our people. The only project with wines from the 5 Galician designations of origin.
