Bodegas y Viñedos Raúl Pérez
About
Raúl Pérez is one of Spain's most restlessly creative winemakers, producing dozens of micro-cuvées from Mencía and Godello across Bierzo, Ribeira Sacra, and beyond. His Ultreia wines from old-vine Mencía in Bierzo's steep slate hillsides are intense yet ethereal. Visiting his warren of cellars scattered across Valtuille de Abajo is an adventure in itself.
Why It's a Hidden Gem
Spain's most prolific genius winemaker, hiding in a tiny Bierzo village, making 40+ different wines from forgotten vineyards across northwest Spain.
