Raul Perez Ultreia El Rapolao 2022 is a distinctive Spanish red wine from the celebrated Bierzo region of Castilla y Leon. Crafted by acclaimed winemaker Raul Perez, this single-vineyard wine highlights the character of old-vine Mencia grown in the historic El Rapolao vineyard near Valtuille de Abajo.

The wine offers an elegant expression of dark cherries, wild raspberries, violets and aromatic herbs, complemented by subtle earthy and mineral notes. On the palate, lively acidity and finely textured tannins support concentrated red fruit flavors, creating a refined, layered wine with a long, savory finish.

This expressive Bierzo red pairs beautifully with roasted lamb, grilled pork, duck, wild mushrooms and aged Spanish cheeses. Its balance of freshness and structure also makes it a compelling choice for cellaring.
