La Penitencia is one of the most exclusive cuvées from Raúl Pérez. The wine comes from a small vineyard in Amandi (Ribeira Sacra), with vines over 70 years old, enjoying a unique microclimate and an eastern exposure. It is a field blend dominated by Mencía, but also includes small amounts of many other varieties such as Caíño, Sousón, Brancellao, Merenzao, Negreda, Garnacha Tintorera, and Mouratón. The vineyard is planted on pure slate soils along the banks of the Sil River.

This is a new wine for the estate, with 2017 being its first vintage. The Laderas de Teno plot is located in the El Palmar valley, in north-western Tenerife. Located at 700 m, with direct exposure to the very cool winds coming from the North Atlantic. The Teno massif is one of the first geological formations from which the island of Tenerife later emerged. The soil of this part of the island has a perfect combination of clay with volcanic rocks that allow perfect drainage. The history of the island along with the most beautiful varieties found here!

It is often said that a good Mencia combines the fruit of a nice Pinot and the freshness of a good Syrah. Valtuille - the name of the village where the vineyard stands - comes from a selection of 100 year-old vines, at 580 m above sea level. Production; 3,500 bottles.

El Bierzo was one of the first Spanish denominaciones to get a completely new set of specifications, introducing (from 2017 onwards) the vino de villa for wines made with grapes originating from one village. A list of villages has been issued. Some producers already use these names, including our suppliers. A good example of "vino de villa" is Valtuille.
