Pérez's delicious, thirst-slaking rosado is drawn from mature vines of Mencía plus a little Godello (for added freshness and texture). The Mencía comes from the clay and limestone soils of the Valtuille and Villafranca vineyards, as well as from the pure slate of Espanillo (the highest vineyard in Bierzo). The Godello grows in the Carracedo vineyard. Both varieties were crushed together and spent 24 hours on skins before pressed into a single, 1800-litre tank for fermentation with indigenous yeasts.

A bright, perfumed, racy and punchy, rosado with fabulous energy and freshness, but also with quite a lot of generosity, lively red berry fruit and spicy complexity. Rates very high on the deliciousness scale.
