The Masaveufamily, who own Fillaboa and two other wineries in Rioja and Navarra, also has a long history in the production of cider within the Asturias region of Spain. The Masaveuspurchased Fillaboa, which means the “good daughther” in Gallego, in the mid-1990’s when they sought out the best facility for making a top quality Albariño. They then invested in several old-vine vineyards throughout the D.O. RíasBaixasand restored many of the old Roman ruins, a 13thcentury church and art museum that lie on the Fillaboa property, resulting not only in a premier Albariño-producing winery, but also a Spanish cultural and historical destination. Winemaker Isabel Salgado has been crafting the award-winning Fillaboa wines since 1998.
