Raul Perez is a renowned winemaker from Spain, celebrated for his innovative approach and dedication to expressing the unique terroir of the Bierzo region. The Ultreia Paluezas is a testament to his craftsmanship, showcasing the Mencía grape varietal, which thrives in the region's slate and clay soils. This wine is crafted with minimal intervention, allowing the natural characteristics of the grape to shine. It undergoes fermentation with native yeasts and is aged in used oak barrels, which imparts subtle complexity without overshadowing the vibrant fruit profile. Expect flavors of dark berries, floral notes, and a hint of minerality, balanced by fresh acidity and fine tannins. This wine pairs beautifully with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and aged cheeses.
