Pittacum, D.O. Bierzo
Arganza, a village with a longstanding vine-growing and wine-making heritage, is nestled in the extraordinarily beautiful landscape of the D.O. Bierzo.
Based in Arganza, Pittacum is the Roman name for amphora, several of which were found on the site. This wine project is based on 50-80 year old dry-grown bush vines. Strict care is taken with the fruit - green harvest and double selections are a regular viticultural undertaking.

Blood, adobe/leather, plug tobacco, faded roses and cooked meat, dried herbs, red berry but not fruity … it’s a Mencia! Power, harmony, line and length; good juice but savoury with meat and leather; tannins delta then mineral/acid/spice provide a rail to finish. Outstanding value, gorgeous drinking. |
