The Losada Winery

The winery is located in the center of the geographical triangle formed by Cacabelos, Villafranca, and Toral de los Vados, providing optimal access to the area where most of the quality grapes of Bierzo are grown. The winery, located opposite the Castro de la Ventosa, an archaeologically and historically significant site unique in the Bierzo region, is currently undergoing consolidation of its winding wall. This wall has served as inspiration and a key element in the design and construction of the winery building. Thus, the building emerges from the terrain and blends seamlessly with it.
