Dishes to try:
Urta a la roteña is a popular dish in Rota and is unique
to the town. It is a unique blend of the fish from the bay and the
produce of the rich local countryside. Here are some other typical
dishes you will find in Rota: sopa de Urta (a soup), aranque roteño
(a herring dish), berza de vigilia (a cabbage dish), tortillitas
de camarones (omelettes with prawns), papas con pargo (potatoes
with red mullet) and a whole variety of fresh fish from the Bay
of Cádiz.
Wine:
Rota also has its own wine La Tintilla de Rota. It is made from
a very ripe grape of the red variety. The resulting wine is very
dark, of a red curra(nt or violet tone, with a lot of body and a
bittersweet flavour. The wine is not produced in large quantities
but it is possible to find it in the bodegas and tabernas in the
town.
