Lagar do Vento is Roberto Regal's project in Belesar, Chantada, the most Atlantic subzone of Ribeira Sacra. Its 2 ha of granite terraces above the Miño are farmed by hand, yielding fewer than 4,000 bottles.

95% Mencía and 5% Garnacha Tintureira, fermented 80% in stainless steel and 20% in third-use French oak.

Do Peizas 2023 is a red wine produced by Lagar do Vento, located in the heart of Galicia, Spain. The estate is situated in Belesar, Chantada, which represents the most Atlantic subzone of the Ribeira Sacra appellation.

The vineyards consist of just two hectares of terraced granite slopes overlooking the Miño River. These plots are cultivated entirely by hand without mechanization, resulting in a very limited production of fewer than 4,000 bottles annually.

The blend is dominated by Mencía, which constitutes 95% of the composition, with the remaining 5% provided by Garnacha Tintorera. Fermentation takes place in a combination of vessels: 80% in stainless steel tanks and 20% in third-use French oak barriques. This specific vinification method aims to preserve the freshness and fruit characteristics of the Mencía while adding subtle complexity from the aged oak, without overpowering the wine with heavy toast or vanilla notes.

As a red wine from the 2023 vintage, Do Peizas is expected to exhibit the elegance and aromatic intensity associated with Mencía from Ribeira Sacra. The granite soils likely contribute to a mineral-driven backbone, while the Atlantic climate helps maintain acidity and freshness. The small percentage of Garnacha Tintorera may add slight color depth or structural weight, though it remains secondary to the primary varietal character.

The wine stands as a testament to small-scale, artisanal production in one of Spain’s most dynamic and historically significant wine regions.

Learn more about Lagar do Vento

Lagar do Vento is a family winery in Belesar, Chantada, on a granite hillside falling to the Miño river in the heart of Ribeira Sacra — a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve since 2021. Two hectares of steep terraces, heroic viticulture, strictly hand-harvested: mechanisation is impossible here, and every gesture in the vineyard is a deliberate choice.

The winery is the only member in Galicia of the Spanish Regenerative Viticulture Association and a member of the global Regenerative Viticulture Foundation. Their philosophy goes beyond preservation: they actively seek to regenerate the soil as a carbon sink and help reverse climate damage. Instead of pesticides, they cultivate communities of native insects and microorganisms; Atlantic gorse grows alongside Mediterranean orange, olive and fig trees, a biodiversity that is their main defence against vine disease.

The varieties are those of Ribeira Sacra: mencía for the reds — led by Do Peizas, voted best red wine of the appellation — and godello, treixadura and loureira for the whites. Limited production of four thousand bottles a year.
