Casar de Burbia is Quintessentially Bierzo
Vineyards
The land where the Casar de Burbia vineyards grow are a key factor in the taste, aroma and body of our wines. The great amount of molybdenum in the soil comes from the slate, highly abundant in the area, which together with the iron, dyes the land red, making the wines of Casar de Burbia a true mineral explosion.
The vineyards are distributed into 42 different plots, grouped essentially into three levels: A, B and C. These levels are selected based on a series of common characteristics such as height, incline and the type of terrain (more or less stony). The combination of these factors give the grapes special features.
