Raúl Pérez 2019 Bierzo Tinto Ultreia St. Jacques
100% Mencia | Alc: 13.5%
Bierzo, Castilla Y Leon, Spain

Winemaker’s Notes:
Raúl Pérez 2019 Bierzo Tinto Ultreia St. Jacques has floral, spicy aromas with hints of underbrush. Juicy, well-structured red fruit with great vibrancy and length on the palate. A long finish is marked by hints of herbs, coffee bean, and tomato leaf.

Critical Acclaim:
“The nose of the 2019 Ultreia Saint Jacques is nothing short of spectacular. It shows the varietal character and the juicy and round style of the Valtuille vineyards. It’s harmonious, clean and expressive. They are using more and more stems with long macerations, malolactic in tanks and aging in 30% oak vats (he purchased from Alion) and 70% of the wine in used 225-liter oak barrels for one year. Best After 2022” 94 Pts -The Wine Advocate
