Monterrei
Pazo del Rey boasts the singularity of it origin, Monterrei, the denomination which is least well known amoungst the Galician wine regions. Monterrei shares the cultivation of the autochthonous varieties with the neighbouring regions: Godello with Valdeorras, Treixadura with Ribeiro, and Mencia with Ribeira Sacra, and is the only one of the Galician regions whose territory lies along the Duero riverbank, although it does not forsake the oceanic influence of the rest, a reason that serves to warrant the cultivation of the red varieties.
