This winery is a personal project of the renowned oenologist from León, Raúl Pérez. Since he worked in the winery Castro Ventosa, which caused a true revolution in El Bierzo, Raúl Pérez has not stopped.

He is undoubtedly one of the most admired winemakers in Spain, the master of wines with an Atlantic character.
