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