Wine Advocate
Reviewed June 2024The "vino de paraje" 2022 Finca Luna Beberide was produced with Mencía from Valdetruchas in Villafranca del Bierzo. It matured in 225- and 500-liter French oak barrels for eight months. It has a varietal profile with wild berries and herbs, contained ripeness and 13.5% alcohol. It's perfumed and floral and has an elegant, medium-bodied palate with fine tannins and balancing acidity. This is a triumph over the 2022 heat. 50,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in January 2024. (LG)

Tim Atkin
A wine which is greater than the sum of its parts, it is blended from grapes from the estate’s different parcels. It offers both pretty notes of rose and red cherry fruit with a fleshy palate and layers of sotobosque. There’s just enough tannic grip on the finish and loads of energy from impressive acidity. It is fresh, juicy and completely delicious. At the price, this is a lot of wine. 2024-27 (BW)
