The winery

The 100-year-old vines of the Amigo family in the Spanish northwest

A little-known wine region in the northwest of Spain. Exciting grape varieties and some vines that are hundreds of years old. A family that has been growing wine with dedication and passion for generations. We are at the Bodega Luzdivina in the Bierzo region in the northwest of Spain, where the Menica grape is used to produce wines of the highest quality and character. The wines are strongly influenced in the vineyard, as the unique characteristics of the soils and locations are utilized and preserved here.

There is no denying that the great red wines of Spain come from Rioja and Priorat. However, in recent years a small region in the northwest of the country has emerged as a real high-flyer.
Bierzo never fails to impress with its great red wines made from the Mencia grape. These wines are not just a discovery, but a real highlight because they are rich, structured and graceful.

The Amigo family has been cultivating vines in the region for many generations. In total, they cultivate 18 hectares of land, which are divided into more than 120 small plots, which are not far from each other. For the family, the soul of the wines comes from these small vineyards. The vines do not grow on wire systems as we are used to, but as small free-standing bushes on the barren, stony soil. A total of 18 hectares of land are used, which are spread over more than 120 small plots, which are not far from each other. For the family, the soul of the wines comes from these small vineyards. The vines of Mencia and Godello are between 50 and 100 years old. The old, almost extinct grape varieties Jerez, Doña Blanca and Garnacha Tintorera are also grown there.

All organic or what?

There are many definitions of what NATURAL means in winemaking. Not all winemakers are certified to treat nature responsibly. So we check for ourselves on site whether a winemaker meets our standards for treating the natural product wine.

✔ Organic, vegan, unfiltered, natural, etc.

✔ Biodiversity instead of monoculture

✔ Natural products produced at the pace of nature

Trust as the most important currency

Over 50 additives can be used in wine production, none of which have to be listed on the label. Mass-produced and cheap wines are flooding the market with artificially produced smells, appearances and tastes. The security of holding an HONEST product in your hand is therefore our top priority.

✔ 100% family wineries

✔ Personal relationship with the winemaker

✔ No influence from ratings, seals or points

Responsibility for the team in the engine room

The work in winemaking is often physically demanding and time-consuming, and not just during harvest time. Cheap workers from low-wage countries are popular. Against this background, high standards in the SOCIAL area are of fundamental importance to us.

✔ Fair wages and humane treatment

✔ Social responsibility

✔ Social commitment

«The basis for every innovation, creation and vision is our tradition»

The location

El Bierzo.

El Bierzo is a region in the northwest of Spain - north of Portugal. The vines here are grown in bush form and grow on varied soils that allow their minerality to condense into the wine. This includes former riverbeds, high granite content, high lime and clay content. The climate here is particularly exciting, as the northwestern maritime climate of Galicia mixes with the continental climate of the northern Spanish plains. Hardly any cold winds and little rainfall.
