Score: Guide Peñín 93/100
The estate's cuvée blanche combines two of Bierzo's main white wine grape varieties, but above all two exceptional terroirs: clay-limestone soils in Valtuille and Villafranca on which the Godello vines flourish, and pebbles and slate in Carracedo and Espanillo that magnify the Doña Blanca. An expressive, fruity and mineral vintage, bursting with Spanish sunshine!
