Fedellos is the brainchild of the winemakers and friends: Curro Bareño and Jesús Oliveras; a consolidation of two projects: Fedellos do Couto in Ribera Sacra and Peixes in Valdeorras.

Their philosophy put simple ‘Nature should define Wine as Wine should express Nature and its taste’. Fedellos is located on the Bibei and Sil rivers between the regions of Valdeorras, Ribeira Sacra and Viana do Bolo. Many old bush vine vineyards north and east facing. Their wines are made with minimal intervention, without clarification or stabilization. The reds undergo 20% maceration with stems for 2 months and the whites for approximately 1.5 months and 80% of the whites are direct pressed.

As Xaras is a Mencia from young wines on granitic metamorphic schist soils. Whereas grapes for Lomba dos Ares derive from 60-80year old vines of interplanted white & red varietal fieldblends. Same for Testoiros white grapes coming from old vines from slaty, schistous and gneiss soils.

EIXE is different, grapes come from the Valdeorras region and vines are 20yrs or less. The idea of ​​this elaboration is to recover, in spirit, the traditional red wines that were produced in the Valdeorras region before the phylloxera plague, where the Merenzao, Albarello and Negreda varieties predominated.
