<\/figure>\n\n\n\n\u201cWe are working very well and making very special and unique wines, and this has been reflected in the results of this first competition we have entered. Truly, there is no greater pride than to have our work recognized. Four golds and a great gold. Our satisfaction is maximum, it is more than we could have imagined for this first time. We have formed a great team, with great professionals: wine lovers and lovers of the pazo and the estate. The love put into each wine is reflected in its passage through the bottle. We are very excited. Now we have to continue working and offering the best of ourselves and the good things that this historic land gives us\u201d, said the general manager of Pazo de La Cuesta, Jes\u00fas \u00c1lvarez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PAZO DE LA CUESTA: THE OLDEST FAMILY WINERY IN GALICIA<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since 2020, Pazo de La Cuesta, located in Ribas de Sil, has been immersed in a renovation and recovery project of its historic vineyard and the restoration of the primitive 16th-century winery. The oldest family winery in Galicia has belonged to the same family since its foundation and it has been Manuel Bellod \u00c1lvarez de Lorenzana, who is part of the fourteenth generation, the one in charge of starting this initiative assuming the commitment to return the prestige of yesteryear to the pazo, its vineyard and its wines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
