The Meín vineyard in Leiro, Ourense, boasts historical significance dating back to 1158, acknowledged for its exceptional grape quality by the abbot of San Clodio Monastery. Viña Meín, pivotal in shaping modern Ribeiro, was established in 1988 by Javier Alén, later acquired by Ribera del Duero producer Pago de Carraovejas in July 2019. As part of the Alma Carraovejas group, Viña Meín and Emilio Rojo are under their umbrella. The vineyards, including Emilio Rojo's ancient terraced plot, span the Avia valley with sábrego granite soils. Viña Meín focuses on red and white cuvées, while Emilio Rojo remains a premium single-vineyard wine. Under new ownership, the 2019 harvest introduced separate plot and grape variety processing, emphasizing complexity. Winemaker Laura Moreno aims for elegance in reds and a nuanced white blend. All wines are anticipated to be released with extended bottle aging for heightened complexity upon market entry.

Ribeira Sacra, the "sacred riverbank" in Galicia, Spain, has gained recognition in the wine world over the last 15 years thanks to winemakers like Roberto Santana, Alfonso Torrente, Laura Ramos, and José Martínez of Envínate. They rediscovered this wild and beautiful landscape with ancient vineyards. Previously, grapes were sold to large wineries, but these four friends made contracts with selected "Viticultores Galegos" to farm these old vineyards together. Aldea Lousas is a blend primarily composed of 85% Mencía, the main red grape of Galicia, planted alongside other native varieties like Merenzao, Brancellao, Caiño, Sousón, Mouratón, Alicante Bouschet, Godello, and Palomino. The vines grow on steep slopes of schist, gneiss, granite, and mica-schist at 400 to 600 meters elevation. Grapes from each parcel are hand-harvested and fermented separately with wild yeast, whole-cluster inclusion, and foot-treading. The wine is aged for eleven months in old tonneaux and concrete tanks without SO2 addition until bottling.
