A sweet muscatel with natural residual sugar (no alcohol is added), Pizarroso is representative of its soils of shale/slate (pizarra). The name of the estate (Bentomiz) comes from the mountain top in front of the vineyard (altitude: 500 m).

The cuvée was the first to be produced by Verónica in El Bierzo, in 2010. It comes from two parcels (El Couso and La Rata) located in Valtuille de Abajo, on poor sandy soils with quartz debris. The vines are 80 years old. This blend made from the best terroirs of Valtuille can bear the "vino de Pueblo" mention. This was has not a big extract, but it is typical of the Mencía grape.

This Merenzao (also called Bastardo in other regions of Spain, and Trousseau in the Jura), has always been considered as the most refined wine of the estate. It is very original; elegant and light coloured. For those who like finesse.

This light and lively wine is a good introduction to this variety. semperviva means eternal, and is the name of a flower that can be dried and thus preserved for a very long time. A beautiful name for a beautiful wine, of which only 4,400 bottles have been made in this first vintage.

This is the successor to the Reserva Brut. A long ageing in bottle has given this Cava more body and complexity. The disgorgment date is mentioned on the back-label.
