Established in 2000 with the idea of showcasing both the Mencia and Godello grapes indigenous to Valdeorras, the "Mineral Valley" region of Galicia, similar, but different from their counterparts in Bierzo, Adega O Casal, or Casal Novo, works with mostly old-vine fruit, farming without herbicides. Zesty and vibrant when young, a couple of years in bottle brings out the vivid side of Godello.
