Corullón is a delicate, enveloping and elegant villa wine, the result of the steep slopes of Bierzo, of that landscape that combines Mediterranean and Atlantic factors at the same time, and which brings silkiness, freshness and minerality to the wines.
2022 was, in the words of the winemakers, "a different vintage, of contained surprises, intense work and the reward of a seductive and elegant grape".
