Based in Valtuille de Abajo, on the slopes beneath the Roman hillfort that gives the winery its name, the family has grown grapes here since at least 1752 and farms a large holding of old vines, most over 50 years of age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEl Castro de Valtuille Mencía Joven is the estate's young red, made from Mencía grown across the family's Valtuille vineyards on soils of varying composition and aspect. The grapes are destemmed and the wine is made in a bright, fruit-forward style, designed to show the fresh, aromatic side of Mencía rather than oak or extraction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt offers an easy-drinking introduction to the wines of Valtuille, with lively red and dark fruit and the gentle, perfumed character for which Bierzo Mencía is known.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eVintages may vary.
