Baltos
Baltos
An enjoyable and somewhat distinctive wine, and we're not just referring to the label. Made from the Mencia grape, which for a long time led a secluded existence in the Bierzo region in Spain's northwestern corner but has now achieved international cult status. Dare to try this wine – it could be a truly positive surprise!

Vinification
The grapes are hand-harvested during the first half of September from vineyards with an average of 40-year-old vines. The wine ferments in stainless steel tanks for 18 days and is then aged for 6 months in 1- and 2-year-old French and American 225 L oak barrels (45/55).
