Description
Raúl Pérez’s La Penitencia 2017 is a red from Ribeira Sacra (Galicia) made from grapes grown in the small, old-vine Pombeiras parcel on slate soils. It is a field blend dominated by Mencía with small amounts of native varieties such as Caíño, Sousón, Brancellao, Merenzao, Negreda, Garnacha tintorera and Mouratón. Maturation in large-format oak lends balance between structure, freshness and mineral character.
