The 2022 red Bierzo El Castro de Valtuille Mencia Joven stands out for its purity and elegance, brimming with red fruit notes, especially cherry and sour cherry. Its restrained aging, peppery notes, and vibrant fruity dynamics create a remarkably digestible blend, elevated by a precisely balanced, crunchy palate and a well-balanced, tangy finish. This versatile wine pairs beautifully with grilled dishes or cured meats, making it perfect for any meal. Rated 91+/100 by Parker.

A phenomenal wine, acclaimed by Parker by 2 of Spain's leading producers.
