The wine region of Bierzo
DO of Castile and Leon in a northwestern basin at the gates of Galicia, mild Atlantic climate. Signature Mencia (62%): elegant, fresh reds with signature notes of raspberry, cherry, violet, graphite and a slatey mineral touch, fine tannins and chiselled acidity — Atlantic finesse sometimes compared to Pinot Noir. Old bush vines on slate and schist. Opulent Godello whites (pear, citrus, butter), Dona Blanca.
The wine region of Castille-et-Léon
Cradle of great Castilian reds on high-altitude plateaus (450-1000 m) of the Duero. Tempranillo king (Tinto Fino, Tinta de Toro): powerful, structured reds with notes of black cherry, blackberry, plum, leather and spices, firm tannins and length worthy of long ageing. Stars: Ribera del Duero (Vega Sicilia, Pingus), fleshy Toro, Bierzo (fresh mineral Mencía). Lively herbaceous Verdejo whites from Rueda, cut grass and citrus.
The word of the wine: Tanin
A natural compound contained in the skin of the grape, the seed or the woody part of the bunch, the stalk. The maceration of red wines allows the extraction of tannins, which give the texture, the solidity and also the mellowness when the tannins are "ripe". The winemaker seeks above all to extract the tannins from the skin, the ripest and most noble. The tannins of the seed or stalk, which are "greener", especially in average years, give the wine hardness and astringency. The wines of Bordeaux (based on Cabernet and Merlot) are full of tannins, those of Burgundy much less so, with Pinot Noir containing little.
