Las Gundiñas, La Vizcaina de Vinos, Bierzo, 2021
Las Gundinas is the wine that sees the most adaptation year to year. The style is supple and easy going, more red fruit based with ripe, pliant tannins and truffley, earthy notes. A southeast facing vineyard planted on clay heavy soils at 450-500m. Its flatter topography versus the other La Vizcaina wines tends to produce fuller bodied, more savoury wines.
critic reviews
The 2021 La Vizcaina Las Gundinas has a slightly earthy touch and is a variable wine that feels quite harmonious and clean, as it's from a plot that sometimes suffers in cooler years. They are going to change the vinification of this plot to achieve more precision. They used 100% full clusters and matured it in well-seasoned, neutral 500-liter oak vats. It is cleaner and more precise this year. 5,500 bottles were filled in May 2020.
