About Serrania de Ronda wine region
Ronda is the best-known modern red-wine area in Malaga, with small bodegas working high vineyards around 700 to 900 metres above sea level. The landscape is part of the experience: vineyard roads, limestone hills and the Tajo gorge near Puente Nuevo give the region a distinctly Andalusian mountain character.
