About Pedro Méndez Xuntanza Caíño/Espadeiro

"Xuntanza" is more than just a name in Galician. It is an invitation to gather, to share enjoyment, and to forge connections that transcend the everyday. In Galicia, this is the name given to those spontaneous gatherings where, after a day in the fields, people come together to sing, dance, and live. This spirit is precisely what the winemaker Pedro Méndez captures in his Pedro Méndez Xuntanza Caíño/Espadeiro.

What sets Pedro Méndez apart, who embarked on his vinous journey in 2015 in the Salnés Valley (Galicia), is his commitment to reviving nearly extinct native red grape varieties such as caíño and espadeiro. His wines, crafted outside the DO Rías Baixas yet within the privileged terroir of Meaño, authentically express the character of their origin.

Pedro Méndez Xuntanza Caíño/Espadeiro is a red wine, produced through meticulous hand selection of the caíño and espadeiro varieties, traditional foot treading, and spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts. After maturing for 10 months in French oak barrels and refining in stainless steel tanks, the result is a vibrant, fresh, and genuine wine.

Thus, Pedro Méndez Xuntanza Caíño/Espadeiro is the culmination of many elements: granitic soils, nearly forgotten varieties, hands working with minimal intervention, and the magic that arises when these components converge. Like a meaningful conversation. Like a shared table. Like a reunion.
