Bierzo like never before
Raúl Pérez is not only regarded as one of the largest winemakers in Spain, but also as a pioneer of the northwestern region of Bierzo. Born and raised in Valtuille de Abajo, he is one of the experts on the unique Bierzo terroir. His La Vizcaína series is a tribute to the crus around Valtuille.
Deep, glittering violet. Expansive, spice-tinged black raspberry, cherry cola, licorice and potpourri aromas are complemented by a strong mineral topnote. Youthfully chewy and focused on the palate , offering concentrated yet lively black and blue fruit liqueur, succulent herb and violet pastille flavors and building spiciness. Finishes with repeating floral and dark fruit character, supple, well-knit tannins and outstanding, mineral- and spice-driven tenacity . – Josh Reynolds, June 2021
