Today, Alberto Carretti and Claudia Iannelli take care of the wine production, but it is especially Alberto, who has a past as a dairy technologist, who is the driving force behind the philosophy. His background has given him the experience to make some clear and uncompromising choices about how to produce wine that is natural and original while reflecting the terroir.

Val De Meigas Albariño is noted for its balance of fruitiness and acidity, complemented by a subtle coastal salinity, offering a unique and versatile tasting experience that captures the enchanting spirit of Galicia.
The wine is the creation of Rebeca Barral, who launched Val De Meigas in 2016, drawing from her family's deep roots in the wine industry. Rebeca’s family has been established for generations in the town of Ribadumia in the heart of the Salnés valley. The Salnés is the oldest and most coastal of the Rías Baixas appellation’s recognized subzones, and is generally believed to the be the genetic birthplace of the Albariño variety. Rebeca’s family have been producing wine commercially in Ribadumia since 1983, but it wasn’t until 2015 that Rebeca decided to take charge of her own project, sourced from select parcels of her family’s holdings. Her impish imagination settled on the trade name Val de Meigas—meiga (cognate with the English ‘mage’) being a witch or sorceress, a common folkloric figure in Galicia and neighboring Asturias. She has also finetuned the winemaking to express her preferred style, utilizing natural yeasts while avoiding skin contact and extended lees aging to achieve a pure, light, mineral style of oceanic refreshment at an amazingly affordable price.
