La Vizcaína El Rapolao is a red wine from Bierzo produced by the Raul Perez winery. The winery is located in Villafranca del Bierzo, in the province of León.
El Rapolao is made from the Mencia variety and small percentages of Alicante Bouschet, Estaladina and Souson.
The grapes come from vineyards planted on soils rich in clay and iron, facing north, located on the grounds of Valtuille de Abajo.
Regarding its preparation, La Vizcaína El Rapolao undergoes fermentation in wood vats of 5000l. After this process, the wine is aged for 12 months in sycamore oak barrels.
La Vizcaína de Vinos is a relatively new project by the multifaceted winegrower and oenologist Raúl Pérez in his homeland: El Bierzo. He started and executed this project with his nephews, César Márquez and Nerea Pérez, the latter tragically deceased during the vintage of 2014. Raúl is a viticulture philosopher. He is also a consultant, as well as an oenologist, and he is the creator of genuine wines. All in all, quite a renown figure in our country. His name is on the lips of many good aficionados, and some of his wines are on the agenda of Robert Parker, although his labels are produced in quantities that seem more virtual than real.
