Winery: Fedellos do Couto

The Fedellos do Couto project was born in 2013 by Jesùs Olivares & Curro Bareño who after studying oenology find themselves working for Sierra de Gredos with Dani Landi and Fernando Garcia. This experience teaches them, among many things, that only things that are not obvious, unknown and difficult are really worth it. Struck by a desire to rediscover their land, they return to Galicia and together with Luis Taboada Fedellos do Couto, they founded a project whose main philosophy is based on the mutual exchange between man and nature with the utmost respect for everything related to it. The vines are from 30 to 75 years old, rise from 350 to 700 meters above sea level and grow on territories with a varied composition (shale, granite, limestone). Minerality of the fruit and drinkability are the common characteristics that we find in all their wines and that define a very specific style.
