History La Vizcaína (Raúl Pérez)
Raul Pérez is one of Spain's most famous enologists. Born in Valtuille, he has put his region (El Bierzo) back on the wine map, thanks to the wines he made first at the family estate of Castro Ventosa, then at other estates in Bierzo and Galicia. At La Vizcaina, the cuvées are usually produced in very small quantities, from small micro-terroirs, and often bear the names of their parcel. The project started in 2011, and as Raúl is quite busy with his Galician activities, here, he works with his nephew Cesar.
