The wine region of Tierra de León
DO of northern Castile-Leon (since 2019 DO Leon), continental plateau, sandy and stony soils. Signature Prieto Picudo as red king (~70% of vineyard): deep and colored with black cherry, blackberry, plum, violet, licorice and spice notes, vivid acidity and firm tannins — unique and atypical character. Supple, fruity Mencia in the north (cherry, raspberry, herbs). Native Albarin Blanco as taut white (green apple, citrus, flowers).
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: VDQS
Delimited wine of superior quality. A level of appellation (today, barely 1% of French production) which constitutes the ultimate step before the accession to the AOC.
