About Us
We are Ana, Alberto, and our daughter SofÃa — an Argentine family who one day decided to change hemispheres and pace, to begin a new life in Galicia, surrounded by rivers, vineyards, and stones full of history.
We love wine, traveling, and long conversations. Our journey has taken us from South Africa to Southeast Asia, passing through the United States, Russia, Europe, and many corners of South America. In each place we learned something, and in all of them we found inspiration to create this space.
When we discovered this old stone winery, we knew something special could be born here. We restored it completely, with patience and great care, imagining the kind of place we ourselves would love to find on our travels: authentic, comfortable, welcoming, and full of soul.
We thought through every detail with dedication, always seeking a balance between comfort, aesthetics, and respect for the essence of the place.
But beyond the house itself, what truly moves us is sharing with other travelers: hearing stories, exchanging experiences, and continuing to learn with every visit.
We hope this peaceful retreat becomes yours as well, and that Wine Lodge Ribeira Sacra stays with you as a warm memory of your time in the Ribeira.
