Note: Peñín Guide 94/100
Typical of the Bierzo style, this wine is made from 100% Mencia grapes grown at an altitude of 700 meters on a terroir of slate and sand. It is both complex and expressive, with aromas of ripe fruit accompanied by a lovely mineral touch. A wine with a bold personality— well worth discovering!
