Tasting notes Ultreia Mencía 2022
Red wine Aged in wood Respectful agriculture. 12 months in French oak barrels.
Ultreia Mencía 2022 is akin to a stroll through a Galician forest. When poured into the glass, its dark and enticing hue beckons one to delve into its essence. On the nose, it presents a fresh, vegetal, and wild aroma, evoking fruits like redcurrant and floral notes of roses, combined with a hint of liquorice and a spicy nuance of pepper. On the palate, its character is precise and pure, offering vibrant minerality, refreshing acidity, and gentle tannins. A wine that flows and resists domination, perfect for those who appreciate the hidden beauty in subtlety, full of elegance and complexity.

About Ultreia Mencía
Ultreia Mencía is a red wine produced by the winery Raúl Pérez in D.O. Bierzo.
This winery is a personal project of the renowned oenologist from León, Raúl Pérez. Since he worked in the winery Castro Ventosa, which caused a true revolution in El Bierzo, Raúl Pérez has not stopped. His latest wines Ultreia "ir más allá" reveal a career in constant evolution.
Raúl Pérez make wines almost in a traditional way. Wines that are very expressive, powerful and elegant at an affordable price. Among them, Ultreia de Valtuille, with 98 Parker points, is probably the most prestigious one.
Ultreia Mencía is made with 100% Mencía. The grapes come from different plots of old vineyards distributed between the towns of Valtuille de Abajo and Sala de los Barrios (León). Among the varieties of soils where the vineyards are planted, the clayey soils prevails, followed, to a lesser extent, by stony and sandy ones.
For the production of this wine they perform long macerations, with little extraction, of the bunches with the stems, as well as fermentation in wooden foudres.
After the wine is made, Ultreia Mencía is aged for 12 months in second- and third-use French oak barrels. Finally, this wine is not filtered nor clarified when it is bottled.
Ultreia Mencía is a synonym of passion and quality. A renowned and well-valued wine at an incredible price.
