Bordeaux-born Grégory Pérez worked at Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste and Château Cos d’Estournel before he moved to Spain. He settled down in Bierzo where he works vineyards in Espadillo. In this mountainous area soils are mostly clay and decomposed slate. His wines are made based on eight key principles: soil knowledge, biodiversity protection, indigenous grapes, no aggressive treatments, no herbicides, low yields, selection of grapes in the vineyard and traditional winemaking and aging. This is a field blend from a single vineyard, that combines power and finesse. In the nose shows complexity because of the evolution, dry floral notes, tart black fruit, but mostly terciary aromas based on earthyness, leather, cigar. Medium body with integrated tannins. A very elegant to be drink with enoguh time to let the wine express itself.
