100% Godello| Alc: 13%
Bierzo, Castilla Y Leon, Spain

Winemaker’s Notes:
La Vizcaína by Raúl Pérez 2020 La del Vivo Bierzo Blanco shows aromas of flint, wet stones, and Asian pear. Tension and saltiness on the palate, balanced by bright acidity.
Pairs well with sardines, sea bass, and cheese.

Critical Acclaim:
“The 2020 La Vizcaína La del Vivo is super harmonious, tasty and balanced. The wine matured in two 2,500-liter oak foudres, and a small part fermented and matured in amphorae with skins. It’s varietal and expressive and comes from two plots, one with sandy soils and another one in Cacabelos with some boulders. There’s always a small percentage of Doña Blanca in the blend. It’s very dry and has a chalky texture. 6,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in August 2021.” 95 Pts -The Wine Advocate
