Bierzo op z’n best!

The 2023 La Poulosa Lomas de Valtuille is mostly Mencía with a portion of Trousseau from a centenary vineyard in Bierzo. It fermented with 100% whole clusters and aged for up to 11 months in barrels. This opens with violet and mint aromas, joined by ripe hints of rosehip, pomegranate and a late note of plum. Attractive and intense, it shows firm, juicy tannins and a compact, grippy texture, defining a palate that is full of energy. – Joaquín Hidalgo, september 2025

The 2023 Las Gundiñas Lomas de Valtuille combines Mencía, Trousseau and up to 10% Doña Blanca from a centenary vineyard. It fermented with 100% whole clusters and aged for up to 11 months in barrel. This opens with appealing herbal aromas of sour cherry, a distant hint of violet and a touch of rosehip. The palate is firm and structured, with broad flavor intensity. The fresh vintage aligns well with the style and the whole-cluster character leaves a compact, slightly austere finish that promises to improve in bottle. – Joaquín Hidalgo, september 2025

The 2023 El Rapolao Lomas de Valtuille is a Mencía from a centenary vineyard in Bierzo that is trained from head to trellis. It fermented with 100% whole clusters and aged for up to 11 months in barrel. This is direct, offering pomegranate, cherry, violet, rosehip and a hint of mint that refreshes the bouquet. It is juicy and tense, with fine, slightly dry tannins delivering freshness and energy. The finish is compact and marked by the stem character. – Joaquín Hidalgo, september 2025

The 2022 Ultreia Valtuille blends Mencía and Trousseau from Valtuille, Bierzo. It was planted on clay soils in shaded parcels, aged in older barrels and whole-cluster fermented. The 2022 offers sanguine notes of red and dark fruit and a touch of herbs and mint. Firm, tense tanninshighlight its fine-grained, juicy texture. It delivers intensity and depth with a compact structure. – Joaquín Hidalgo, februari 2025

The 2023 Ultreia Rapolao, like in 2022, matured exclusively in foudre, as they have eliminated the barrels for the élevage. This comes from the old part in a slope that was planted with a field blend of different varieties. It's super clean, a constant in the Ultreia 2023s, floral and expressive, with a fine-boned palate and fine tannins. 1,200 bottles produced. – Luis Gutiérrez, juli 2025
