This is the personal project of Sara Martínez and León Flórez, to recover centenary Mencia vineyards in the area of Ribera del Río Órbigo, in the province of León. We return to our origins to make another dream of ours come true. We invested more than six years to recover each of these plots that were abandoned for a long time and that we have been acquiring little by little. We have co-planted vineyards with a majority of Mencia but also with white varieties such as Palomino or Doña Blanca and other red varieties such as Garnacha Tintorera or Prieto Picudo. In this way we elaborate our wines with the same percentage of the different varieties that each vineyard gives us.

We make unique, fresh and elegant village wines. The vineyards are located on slopes near the Órbigo River between altitudes of 820 and 900 meters above sea level. The soils are extremely poor, a sandy-clay with lots of boulders on the surface. The climate is very dry from spring to autumn, very extreme and with great thermal shocks that give the wines acidity and depth. The vineyards are all centenary – they were planted between 1915 and 1945 – and result in very low yields.
Our viticulture is environmentally friendly and we do not use herbicides or chemical fertilizers. We also work with some fundamentals of biodynamic agriculture.
