Raul Perez 'Las Gundinas' Lomas de Valtuille, Bierzo, Spain 2019
PĆ©rez told me that Las GundiƱas is quite unpredictable, and the 2019 La VizcaĆna Las GundiƱas is more RhĆ“ne-like and juicy, with notes of straw and hay and also a note of iron. It's 13.5% alcohol. They always ferment with 10% full clusters and have the same maceration, but they have lowered the time in barrel as the wines stay in the fermentation oak vats until February and then are put in 500-liter and larger barrels and bottled before the next harvest. They are introducing oak foudres at La VizcaĆna, and if it goes well, they might move the whole project to them. There are some 5,000 bottles of this.
