Terroir:
Angelita comes from a plot of 29 years planted in 1994 on trellis by the family. The vineyard has 300 28-year-old plants in Chardonnay with characteristics of the main terroir of boulder and clay at 900 meters of altitude and with east orientation. Very low yields are obtained in very small clusters, so the concentration and maturation is high.

Mechanically
Fermentation:
Steel (100%)
Storage:
Old oak (100%) 12 months
Winemaker:
Victor López
The grape harvest 100% Chardonnay was made at the beginning of September. At the entrance to the winery, the grapes are destemmed on the press and immediately pressed manually to obtain the juice directly with a yield of around 60% of the volume. The must is unraveled with the application of low temperature for 24 hours. After 24 hours, it is decanted for clarification and is transferred and left ready for fermentation. Fermentation begins in stainless steel tank. As soon as the fermentation is stable and the 225-litre barrels of used French oak are covered, so that the alcoholic fermentation ends. During the aging in barrels, periodic movements of the lees are carried out, thus ageing on them, looking for a structural contribution and good body. After 12 months in the barrel it is clarified and bottled.

Information
We created VinosLOF as a family project rooted in generations of vineyard work in El Bierzo. As the Lopez and Folgueral family, we focus on producing quality wines exclusively from our own vineyards, mainly in Valtuille de Abajo and Villalibre de la Jurisdicción. Many of our vines are over 80–100 years old and planted with local varieties, with Mencía as the cornerstone. Through organic viticulture, minimal-intervention winemaking, and the restoration of historic family wineries, we aim to express each plot’s unique terroir while preserving this heritage for future generations.
