About Bernado Estévez y Xico Mandín Ceibe

In Galician, "ceibe" means free. Free as a bird. Free as a thought that does not conform to external norms. Free in the way Bernardo Estévez and Xico Mandín understand wine.

Under this name —Ceibe— these two authentic Galician viticulturists join forces to craft a red wine that does not seek to please the market, but rather to tell the story of a diverse land, ancient grape varieties, and a way of working that prioritises nature above all else.

Thus, Bernado Estévez and Xico Mandín Ceibe emerges from a mosaic of plots: A Cañada, O Montiño da Pereira, and Touxigueira, vineyards that Xico and Bernardo tend with care, relying solely on the help offered by the environment. In total, 2.2 hectares with an impressive diversity of local grape varieties: zamarrica, merenzao, caíño longo, brancellao, espadeiro, pedral, mencía, tinta amarela, sousón, tinto serodio… a true Galician viticultural archaeology.

Each plot has its own character: some with slate soils, others with schist or granite. This mineral richness is directly transferred to the wine, which ferments with native yeasts and spends nine months on lees in oak barrels, unhurried and without artifice.

As a result, Bernado Estévez and Xico Mandín Ceibe is by no means a "technical" wine, nor is it tamed. It is pure Atlantic energy, fresh fruit, and tension. And as its name suggests, it submits to nothing: neither trends, nor formulas, nor labels. Only to one thing: the freedom to express Galicia with honesty.
