Villegas in Valtuille de Abajo

Villegas is one of the vineyards most appreciated by Raúl Pérez. It is located in Valtuille de Abajo,, cradle of the winery in El Bierzo. It has a nascent orientation to the south and peculiar soils for the area. If El Bierzo has an abundance of clay soils, in Villegas we find a sandy soil. The vineyard is around 600 meters high, and dates back 130 years. The largest profusion of grapes is of the mencía variety, although we also find vineyards of garnacha tintorera and bastardo.
