Bierzo is a wine region in the northwest of Castilla y Leon, Spain, close to the region’s borders with Galicia (to the west) and Asturias to the north. Bierzo was accorded DO status in 1989 and in the past few years has experienced a surge in popularity

Traditional local grapes are Mencia which achieves optimum ripeness to produce lively, fruity and often intense red wines and Garnacha, another important red grape variety here and is primarily used in blends.

White wines are also produced in Bierzo, predominantly from Dona Blanca, Godello (Verdelho) and Palomino grapes. Rosé wines may also be produced, although a minimum of 50 percent Mencia is required.
