Bodega Mengoba

Bodegas y Viñedos Mengoba is owned by Gregory Pérez, a true enthusiast who began his career in 1998 at Château Cos d'Estounel. The estate's vineyards stretch across the terroirs of Espanillo, Valtuille, Villafranca Du Bierzo and Carracedo, in the heart of Spain's Bierzo appellation.

The soils are slatey, limestone and rocky, and benefit from a mountainous climate with Atlantic influences. Three of the denomination's traditional grape varieties flourish here: Godello and Doña Blanca, which produce the Bodegas y Viñedos Mengoba estate's white cuvée, and Mencia, the source of Mengoba red. Two cows (Guinda and Jardinera) are used to work the soil in the traditional, purely artisanal way, and phytosanitary treatments are naturally reduced thanks to the climatic conditions (altitude, ventilated areas, draining soils...). The two cuvées from the Bodegas y Viñedos Mengoba estate are a sure bet for Bierzo wines!
