Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2022 La Vizcaína Las Gundiñas is the palest and freshest of the 2022 reds from the La Vizcaína range, and it is the one with less alcohol (around 12.7%). It comes from the coolest plot, the best place for warm years, with more clay and deeper soils and more retention of water. To me, this outperforms the 2021. The wines always ferment, year after year, in the same vats and barrels. It fermented with 100% full clusters. There are some 8,000 bottles.

Description
Las Gundiñas is a red wine made from Mencía and produced by the winery La Vizcaína de Vinos. This is the most recent wine project of Raúl Pérez, together with his nephew Cesar Márquez, under the D.O. Bierzo appellation in Spain.
The Gundiñas area is located on the Camino de Santiago and the orientation of this area is to the east.
This grape variety comes from a vineyard of 80 years and more located at the bottom of a hillside at 250 metres altitude where sediments and rainfall are concentrated. Therefore, it is an organic soil, rich in clay and with a large amount of water.
Elaboration
The grapes are harvested by hand at optimum ripeness and transported to the winery in small boxes of 18 kilos. On arrival, fermentation is carried out in 5000 litre wooden vats, this is done with the whole grapes, with stems. In the same way, the feet are worked daily until the alcoholic fermentation is finished and the wine is left to macerate for 40 to 60 days.
The ageing process takes place in French oak barrels for more than 12 months.
Taste
Las Gundiñas is an intense wine, which has great balance on the palate. It has a very soft tannin and adequate acidity, which gives rise to a light and fresh wine with a round and quite accessible profile.
A red wine full of complexity
Las Gundiñas, is a wonderful red wine from the plot that gives its name to the wine in Valtuille de Abajo, in the region of El Bierzo, in Spain.
In the gastronomic field it combines perfectly with different varieties of soft cheeses and dishes prepared with rice.
