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: Free-run wine
The free-run wine is the wine that flows out of the vat by gravity at the time of running off. The marc soaked in wine is then pressed to extract a rich and tannic wine. Free-run wine and press wine are then aged separately and eventually blended by the winemaker in proportions defined according to the type of wine being made.
