The Raúl Pérez Ultreia Godello 2021 is produced using 100% Godello grapes from Bierzo. The harvest is conducted early to maintain freshness and acidity. Fermentation occurs in oak foudres and barriques, utilizing native yeasts. The wine undergoes approximately 12 months of aging in various oak vessels, with some portions aged with a developing layer of flor. The wine is bottled unfined and unfiltered.
