In a summer night in 2015 a few brothers and great friends had dinner together and tasted many wines to chose between a range of local varieties in Bierzo and Galicia. They were looking for inspiration to plant “La cuadra de la Señora”, a hectare of land that once had been a malvasía vineyard… A few months later part of this land was planted with some 800 vines of Merenzao, a variety we had fallen in love with. On top of that, sitting the vineyard by the French Camino de Santiago were pilgrims pass by, it made perfect sense to grow the Merenzao that no question had arrived to Bierzo from Jura centuries ago. That trousseau is now one of us. After the terrible conditions of 2017, it took us up to 2019 to first achieve a harvest with enough quality to produce the first single variety wine with 100% Merenzao in DO Bierzo.
