*Pick up orders are available next day for pick upRaúl Pérez Pereira is universally considered to be one of the world’s most visionary winemakers. Since he produced his first vintage for his family’s winery in 1994 at the age 22, he has been in the forefront of the conversation about what has been called “The New Spain”. In 2005, he left his family business to strike out on his own, creating Bodegas y Viñedos Raúl Pérez, which quickly became the point of reference for the Bierzo appellation. In the intervening years, he has expanded his sphere of activity to include the appellations of Rías Baixas, Ribeira Sacra and Tierra de León, but his heart and his home remain in Valtuille de Abajo, the village in Bierzo where his family has been tending vines for well over 300 years.
From older vineyards in Valtuille and Villadecanes, this elegant, almost Burgundian wine is a harmonious blend of bright red fruit flavors, floral notes, and earthiness, reflecting Perez's dedication to highlighting the unique terroir of Bierzo, and his mastery of Mencia. Aged in a combination of steel and used oak, it is aromatic and high-toned, with notes of fresh cherries, cranberries, herbs, and subtle spice.
