Spain Bodega y Viñedos Castro Ventosa

Our committee's review

A powerhouse collaboration! When Raúl Pérez, the rising star of Bierzo, and César Marquez, a master of winemaking, join forces, sparks fly at the region's oldest bodega, Castro Ventosa.

At Castro Ventosa, an ancient Roman site surrounded by vineyards, these two leaders of Spain's new wave continue to drive innovation and renewal. Drawing from a rich heritage of old vines and local grape varieties, they create fresh, precise, and impeccably refined cuvées that embody the best of modern Spanish winemaking.

A fresh interpretation of Iberian terroirs, this phenomenal cuvée—once again praised by Parker—offers remarkable value and pure enjoyment. This light, fruit-forward expression of Mencía is a fantastic introduction to this increasingly popular grape variety!

From a cool vintage, the 2023 Red Bierzo El Castro de Valtuille Mencia Joven  showcases a smooth and elegant profile that is simply charming! With vibrant, juicy primary fruit notes, this red wine stands out with its simplicity and effectiveness. Both ripe and fresh, it’s wonderfully refined and can be enjoyed right now or aged for another 4 to 5 years. An absolute delight! Rated 92/100 by Parker.

A beautifully fruity wine crafted by two of Spain's finest winemakers, for just €6.99*.
