Cume do Avia

Estate

Brothers Diego and Álvaro, along with cousins Fito and Anxo, left city life to reclaim their family's land, Eida de Mouros, abandoned in 1942. The project was reestablished in 2005, first vines planted in 2008, first wine in 2012. The vineyards sit on a hilltop above the Avia River on granodiorite, schist, slate, and gneiss bedrock. Nearly twenty indigenous varieties are planted, including Brancellao, Sousón, Caíño, and Treixadura.

Wines

The "Colleita" series marks each vintage. "Arraiano" is the entry-level Tinto and Branco. "Dos Canotos" bottles single varieties. The range has the complexity of a field-blend tradition and the precision of single-site farming.
