In 2008, Iago Garrido and Liliana Fernández found four hectares of abandoned terraces in Rioboó, in the Avia valley (Ribeiro). A small stream splits the estate in two; the neighbours called it “auga levada”. They began by selling the wine from home, like a furancho.

It is now the first winery certified biodynamic in the D.O. Ribeiro, with goats and hens among the vines. On iron-rich granite they have regrafted Treixadura with Lado and Agudelo, and they add Albariño plots in Rías Baixas and Doña Branca in Monterrei. They ferment with native yeasts and age in old large-format wood, sometimes under veil, with minimal sulphites.
