Our dream is to create a great wine, based on our understanding of the vineyard, its terroir, and the native grapes of the Mencia varietal. An artisan production, a vigilant aging, evoking traditional consumption tied to the local culture, all without forgetting the latest trends and responding to changes rapidly and with a personal commitment.
Our mission is to create a sustainable project, able to add value to our grapes, and allowing us to maintain and recover our vineyards to their best potential. Our vision is to grow and to create a specially designed winery to develop an artisan labour, becoming the high quality wine benchmark in Bierzo.
DEMENCIA is the Spanish word for dementia, a word that relates to the dysfunctional or the disorientation, a small mental disorder, but loaded with creativity and brilliance. This is the spirit of DEMENCIA wine.

| Taste: |
Lively and smooth attack with a good structure, well balanced between freshness and fruits. Lovely clean finish. |
| Vinification: |
Our Pyjama Mencía wine is representative of the area of El Bierzo. Its grapes come from different places in the region. We use goblet-pruned vines that are at least 60 years old. Fermentation is spontaneous and yeasts are local. We use the best vines which produce somewhat more. |
