La Vizcaina Bierzo "Las Gundinias" 2022
Named Winery of the Year in 2010 by Wine and Spirits magazine, Raul Perez is now officially a rock star and beacon of tremendous Spanish wine. His philosophy, unique approach and ability to craft terroir-driven examples of somewhat offbeat varietals make him a maverick. Now that the press has caught up to him, his stature looms larger than ever. With his single vineyard wines form Bierzo, Raul captures the true essence of the Mencia grape by allowing the 90+ year old vines to speak...and speak they do. 100% whole cluster fermented and aged for 12 months in French oak, Las Gundinias is gorgeously endowed red -- all full of bright raspberry tones, hints of black pepper, minerals, dried flowers, violets and lavender. Structured for mid-term cellaring and absolutely amazing right now, enjoy this Spanish siren now through 2031.
