Following the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela, from the 11th century religious orders from all over Europe were established in the region. They brought with them a new type of vine of Atlantic stock, which some time later would be known as Mencía. The estate’s vineyards are located in the municipality of Corullón, in the mountains to the west of Bierzo: some 30 hectares covering a constellation of minute plots of old vines on steep, rocky slate soils. The wine-growing discipline pursues to combine two dimensions, organic and immaterial, in a search that constantly seeks definition and purity. This process engages different actors: the soil, the plant, the agriculture and the environment ecosystem.
