  • Sector: VINO BLANCO CON DOP JOVEN/ DEL AÑO
Made from the Godello grape variety in the Ribeira Sacra D.O. with reduced production, the grapes are manually harvested, destemmed, crushed and pressed. The wine is aged on its own fine lees for a minimum of four months and after 9 months in the bottle it is a balanced wine that reflects the complexity of the variety.

One family, five appellations. A project united by the rivers that run through Galicia and that trace an imaginary line that connects our vineyards and feeds them. 

 

It all began in 1940, when Manuel Méndez and Maruja Otero opened Casa Penouzos in Chantada (Lugo), a wine shop that was then the trigger for a relationship that would be continued years later by Javier Méndez and Ana María Rojo, parents of Juan Luis Méndez Rojo. In this same line, and as a special tribute to his parents and to his beloved land of origin, a project is started which he names and protects with his own surnames: Méndez-Rojo; a project that reflects the trajectory, the years of experience and the knowledge of the sector, offering excellent brands of Galician wines.  

 

We start from the respect and admiration for the environment, seeking to pay tribute to the land and our people. The only project with wines from the 5 Galician designations of origin.
