Raul Perez, La Vizcaina - La Vitoriana, Bierzo 2018 Campania tangerine peelThis wine weaves an intricate web as it rolls across the palate, starting with wonderful vibrancy and freshness, with more delicate perfumed characters coming to the fore, before the finely structured tannins kick in, along with a wonderful punch of darker fruit and spice which takes on some delicious savoury nuances on the finish. A truly elegant, unique wine. Punches so far above its price point, it's criminal. Only 5,800 bottles produced.
