BODEGAS CASTROVENTOSA, RAÚL PÉREZ, BIERZO

Bodegas y Viñedos Castro Ventosa is a winery located in Valtuille de Abajo. To talk about Castro Ventosa is to talk about a region, but mostly about people who are rooted to the land. These are people with their own style, dignified and discrete, detached from ephemeral disruptions, fashions and trends, simply in tune with the cyclical and monotonous rhythm of the seasons and  the vineyard. At Castro Ventosa, life gravitates around the land, the vineyard, the grape and wine which can only be created as natural consequence of doing things right at every stage.

BODEGAS Y VIÑEDOS RAÚL PÉREZ, BIERZO AND GALICIA

Raúl Pérez is serious about his work but doesn’t take himself too seriously. An accomplished and respected winemaker, he is also a person with great generosity of spirit, always open to collaborate and share his ideas with others. Raul believes that wine is made in the vineyard but is undeterred from trying a multitude of strategies to find that vineyard’s voice. As a winemaker, he seeks to capture the full potential of each site he works with; he has an uncanny knack for knowing what a vineyard needs and how to treat that vineyard’s grapes once in the winery to achieve their greatest expression. Bodegas y Viñedos Raúl Pérez produces rare, handcrafted, artisanal wines from varieties such as Mencía, Bastardo, Prieto Picudo, Godello, Albariño and others from the Northwestern DOs of Spain.

CASA AURORA

CASA AURORA, GERMÁN BLANCO, BIERZO ALTO (VILLA DE ALBARES)

Casa Aurora is an outcome of high altitude, organic vine growing in the Upper Bierzo area. This is a personal project of German Blanco, whose family history brought him back to the village of his grandparents – Villa de Albares.

Weather difficulties and the mining boom (coal and gold) made people abandon wine production in the area. The vine growers who remained are now striving to recover, and Casa Aurora is at the center of this revival. German works with 3 vineyards planted with array of local grape varieties many decades ago. The vineyards total 5 hectares, so production is very small. The vines are in the villages of Albares de la Ribera and San Esteban. The soil here is mostly clayey (red clay with a high content of iron) with some sand and stones on the surface.
