El Bierzo, located in the province of León, in the northwest of Spain, is a wine region surrounded by mountains that generate a perfect microclimate for viticulture. Its soils, composed mainly of slate and clay, offer privileged conditions for producing wines with their own personality .
The winemaking history of this enclave dates back to Roman times, but its contemporary rebirth came in 1989 with the creation of the Bierzo Denomination of Origin. Since then, the area has made a name for itself thanks to its distinctive wines, especially the Mencía reds and Godello whites. Mencía, in particular, stands out for its intense aromas and remarkable ageing capacity.
Among the most influential producers are José Antonio García, who has revitalised the family vineyards in Valtuille de Abajo, and Raúl Pérez, a key figure in Spanish oenology , renowned for his exceptional creations. El Bierzo is characterised by small plots that reflect the diversity of its terroir, allowing the classification of the wines to include the site and municipality of origin to underline the uniqueness of each bottle.
In addition, this region is home to many vineyards with centuries-old vines. The so-called “golden mile” between Valtuille and Corullón contains the largest expanse of old vineyards in the world in a single area of 400 hectares, shared among numerous owners who continue to preserve a tradition that dates back centuries.
El Bierzo offers an unrivalled wine experience, with wines that capture the essence of its landscape and the dedication of its winegrowers.

With each bottle, you are part of a more sustainable future; today more than ever, every choice counts.
