We are the exclusive importer in Belgium of all the wine estates featured on this website.
One of Spain's most sought-after wine region, for its white as well as its reds. The most Atlantic, too. Here vines struggle for life! Galicia is also a conservatory of long-forgotten grapes.
Mencia, Merenzao (Bastardo)
75 cl.
2020
A bright, sparkling red colour. The first nose is a little restrained, but after swirling it reveals lovely fruity, mineral notes that are very faithful to their terroir.
2022
Albariño (100%)
2023
Single-vineyard Albariño from 90-year-old vines in Xesteiriña (Sanxenxo). Gneiss soils bring freshness and additional volume to the wine. Only 1,000 bottles produced. The label mentions Iraia & Edu from the Lagüiña lieu-dit.
Doña Blanca, Monstruosa de Monterrei, Treixadura, Verdello
Alanda is the entry-level white wine of José Luis Mateo and showcases the range of white grape varieties he has recovered in the region. He has done remarkable work bringing these nearly forgotten varieties back into focus. All his wines are made organically. It is a typical “village wine”, with a production of around 10,000 bottles.
Bastardo (Merenzao), Mencia, Tintorera
2018
An Atlantic-climate wine coming from Southern Galicia. Its Burgundy, refined style is that of a different Spain.
Mencia
2025
The "basic" wine from Algueira. Its amin characteristics are drinkability, juiciness, but also typicity and minerality. This type of wine is juicier than most of El Bierzo's Mencias.
Albarin
Pinot Noir (100%)
As Covas is one of the two parcels planted by Rodri and Raul Pérez in Pontevedra (only 1.200 plants per hectare). Th e Pinot Noir vines are some 10 years old, the production of this cuvée is only 800 bottles.
Treixadura (60%), Albariño (20%), Caiño branco (10%), Loureira (10%)
As Penas is the white single-vineyard wine from Adega A Barouta in Ribeiro. It comes from an old vineyard in the Val do Avia, planted on granite soils. The mixed planting is dominated by Treixadura, complemented by Albariño, Caíño Blanco, Loureiro, Agudelo and other local varieties. Treixadura forms the backbone of the wine, while Albariño brings extra acidity and energy. A white Ribeiro with plenty of tension, minerality and a clearly Atlantic character. It is also made to develop well in bottle.
Godello (100%)
150 cl. (Magnum)
2024
Rafael's wine adventure all started with this As Sortes. He wanted to produce one wine, and that's all. And no doubt this wine is at the top of the Valdeorras wines, and white Spanish wines also. "As Sortes" is an old Galician administrative term which refers to a lottery system supposed to avoid too much division of hearted lands.
Bastardo (Merenzao) (100%)
Bastardo, aias Merenzao, is a rare Galician grape, a variant of the Trousseau from Jura. This is an authentic wine, showing a somewhat Bourguignon-approach re terroir and elegance.
Garnacha Tintorera, Mencia, Souson
2021
This latest addition to the Castro Candaz range was first produced in 2018. It is the only Mencía made from grapes sourced from several vineyards, both in the northern Chantada area and in the Bibei area of Ribeira Sacra. Pure Mencía fruit!
A small side project by Rodrigo Méndez of Forjas del Salnés. It concerns a vineyard of old Albariño vines of around 70 years old on granite and sandy soils, located in the village of Meaño.
Mencia (100%)
Another first-born from Raúl: for the first time he has vinified a wine in Ribeira Sacra, an extremely difficult region where Spanish reds are not always the easiest to drink. Here it’s a different story: this is, without doubt, the best wine ever made in this region.
Alicante Bouschet, Mencia, Merenzao (Bastardo)
This cuvée is the entry level wine of the finca, part of the "vinos elegantes" project by Raúl Perez and Rodri Méndez. The grapes come from 45 to 70 year-old vines, mainly Mencia, but also Alicante and Bastardo. The vines are located in La Chantada, at the Northern tip of the Ribeira Sacra, mainly on granite soils.
A very pure Albariño, made from old vines (50 year-old) on granite-sand sols, juste above sea level. Production: only 2500 bottles.
Caiño (100%)
2019
Vineyard of around 60 years old, located close to the sea. A Telleira is the warmest vineyard of the estate and is particularly well suited to red grape varieties. Very limited production of around 600 bottles.
Doña Blanca (100%)
The smoky and leesy 2019 Gorvia Blanco is a single-vineyard white from a classified vineyard, the first one he planted 38 years ago with trellises and later transformed to goblet. It's one hectare on a slope by the Monterrei Castle on decomposed and complex slate soils, mostly Dona Blanca with 5% Treixadura and Verdello Antiguo. It fermented in a 1,500-liter foudre and a 500-liter barrel, all used and neutral, where the wine is kept with lees for one year, then blended and put in stainless steel for one more year. It feels young and undeveloped; it's still pale and primary, with notes of herbs and fennel, crushed stones and a balanced palate with precision, delineation and purity and with a very tasty finish. The variety is considered quite neutral but does reflect the character of the place quite faithfully ... at least when worked like this! Bravo! 2,500 numbered bottled were filled in November 2021.
Gorvia is the name of an enclave in Monterrei. The vineyard was planted by José Luis Mateo’s father in 1985 and has a southern exposure. The wines of the estate are vinified biodynamically.
Mencia (95%), Bastardo (Merenzao) (4%), Caiño Redondo (1%)
This wine is named after a small enclave in the D.O. Monterey: Govia. The estate's wines are all farmed biodynamically.
2016
Mencia (85%), Caiño (10%), Bastardo (Merenzao) (5%)
La Penitencia is one of the most exclusive cuvées from Raúl Pérez. The wine comes from a small vineyard in Amandi (Ribeira Sacra), with vines over 70 years old, enjoying a unique microclimate and an eastern exposure. It is a field blend dominated by Mencía, but also includes small amounts of many other varieties such as Caíño, Sousón, Brancellao, Merenzao, Negreda, Garnacha Tintorera, and Mouratón. The vineyard is planted on pure slate soils along the banks of the Sil River.
Rodri Méndez is one of the best producers of Albariño wines in Galicia. Leirana is his entry level wine, but also the perfect illustration of his style: non frills, crisp, and sharp. Rodri mainly works with older vines, and those are put into good use, in this wine as well as in his top range (the Goliardo line).
This wine was made for the first time in 2017. It is unique, as Rodri is the only one to make a single vineyard wine won this exceptional terroir: a 100 year-old vine planted on 3 metres of sans, 50 metres from the seaside at Arra, in Montalvo-Sanxenxo. Unique indeed.

One of our best Albariños, made from the grapes of a 180 year-old pre-phylloxeric vine . Impressive wine. Production: 5.000 bottles only.
Godello (92%), Treixadura (8%)
The signature wine of white-wine master Rafael Palacios. It shows what Godello is truly capable of. A pure example of minerality and balance, with a perfect expression of the granite peaks of Valdeorras.

Lousas is the workhorse of Envínate in Galicia. Their "village wine". Besides their top volcanic wines in Tenerife, they also have beautiful vineyards in Ribeira Sacra, located between 300 and 500 m altitude. The Lousas is the Spanish alternative to village wines from Burgundy, which today often cost many times as much as this Spaniard. All vineyards are in biodynamics.

Monstruosa de Monterrei (100%)
José Luis Mateo's personal creation: he has revived a long forgotten white grape, the Monstruosa de Monterrei, which he had found in his vines. He then replanted some 750 plants of it in a small vineyard. Monstruosa refers to “monstrous” grapes, in this case showing balanced acidity and a structure that promises many years of ageing potential.

50 cl.
An entry-level wine... and a top wine! Respectful of its terroir, elegant and complex. And with some ageing potential. Pazo means estate in Galician.
This "entry level wine" is really a top wine! Respectful of its terroir, elegant and complex, with a good ageing potentiel. Pazo means estate in the Galician language.
Spicy digestif based on Pazo de Señorans' orujo.
A particularly fine Albariño distillate.
2015
This cuvée is only produced in the best vintages. It is not aged in barrels but in stainless steel tanks, on its lees, at low temperatures. This unique wine is only released after 6 years.

Merenzao (Bastardo) (85%), Brancellao (Albarello) (15%)
This Merenzao (also called Bastardo in other regions of Spain, and Trousseau in the Jura), has always been considered as the most refined wine of the estate. It is very original; elegant and light coloured. For those who like finesse.
Sorta Antiga comes from the oldest and the most spectacular of Rafa's vineyards- he names it "the Montrachet of Valdeorras". The parcel is only 0,24 ha. Only bush vines, planted in 1920. The soil is covered with straw, to avoid erosion of the powdery granit. Thos Godello is something apart in Rafa's range. Darker, due to the skin-contact maceration - a tannic white, the orange wine by Rafael Palacios.
Sorte O Soro is Rafael Palacios' first Grand Cru in the Bibei valley in Valdeorras. This is definitely one of Spain's absolute top wines and the nec plus ultra of the Godello. Sourced from one of his best parcels "O Soro", The result in the glass is a tighter Godello in its youth with plenty of fraîche, complexity and structure. Everything the greatest white wine should have in the house is found in this bottle.
The new top wine by Berta Garcia, who made wine at Latour and Haut Brion. The grapes come from within the estate's walls, hence the name of this cuvée, Tras Los Muros, behind the walls.
Brancellao (Albarello) (60%), Caiño Longo (40%)

Verdello Antiguo (100%)
With this wine, José Luis Mateo has accomplished a tour de force and a première, recuperating the Verdello Antiguo, an old clone of Godelllo from the Monterrei heights. This wine has more tension than your usual Godello.
In addition to the white Finca Genoveva, Rodri has also been making a red since 2017. Mainly from old-vine Caíño. It shows a truly Atlantic character with impressive depth. A wine that can stand alongside the great reds of the Loire.
O Pradiño is named after the parcel from which the wine originates, in O Vinquiño (Sanxenxo). The vineyard was completely replanted in 2012 using cuttings from some of the more than century-old vines that were still present on this site. The vineyard lies very close to the sea and consists of decomposed granite and sand soils, with gneiss. In total, there are 1,600 vines, with an annual production of around 700 bottles. Our most mineral Albariño!
