About this wine

Description & facts

Bierzo’s principal grape is the obscure,
indigenous red variety Mencía. While Bierzo is a relatively new wine appellation, it has a wealth of very old vines, planted on extremely steep hillsides, and in this respect it much resembles the Priorat region. Bierzo has rocketed onto the world wine stage in recent years, and no one is more responsible than Alvaro Palacios and his nephew Ricardo Perez. They started this winery in 1999 with a goal of crafting singular wines from Bierzo’s old vine variety, Mencia.
