In 1986, when Carmen Gómez, being from Liébana, was told about the risk that the orujo of her region was running, she decided to create Orujo de Liébana, S.A., and thus to maintain, adapted to the times, the traditional production of orujo in this area.
In the 2016 harvest Orulisa released its first wine made with grapes from Liébana, within the PGI "Vino de la Tierra de Liébana" and with a very small production.
Simple wines, fresh and with character, that express the variety of grapes and the soil of the lebaniegas lands. It is a vineyard annexed to the pomace distillery, planted in 1986 with grafts of Mencia and Palomino from the area, and 6 small plots of old vines that we are recovering in the area of Pumareña, with vines between 60 and 100 years old. With varieties such as Mencia, Garnacha Tintorera, Tempranillo, Albillo, Palomino, Moscatel and white and black Albarin.
Since April 2018, these Pumareña plots have been registered in the International Register of Heroic Viticulture (CERVIM), as they are located on land at an altitude of over 500 meters and with slopes all exceeding 30%, traditional goblet-trained cultivation and with native varieties. Very few vineyards in our country meet these extreme requirements for the cultivation of vines, which makes it totally impossible to use mechanical means for their care.
