Jerome Bougnaud’s credentials are impressive, having worked for many years at the likes of Quinta Sardonia and Pingus. He and Peter Sisseck worked together on some of the best vintages at Pingus before in Bougnaud went off on his own in 2009.
When he came across a parcel of un-grafted, pre-phylloxera vines, over 100 years old, with an elevation of 980 meters above sea level, Galia was born. Located above the village of Piquera de San Esteban, just outside the limits of the official Ribera del Duero appellation, with some of the most unique terroir in Spain.
The top wine, the almost Burgundian-inspired Clos Santuy garnered 96 points from the Wine Advocate with Luis Gutierrez describing it as "textbook elegant and fresh Ribera". Sourced from an ancient enclosed vineyard with soil and style comparable to Clos Vougeot it is one of Northern Spain's great red wines. With only 1,073 bottles filled in 2015, it's also one of the rarest.
Omission from the official appellation won't keep Galia down. If these wines were officially in Ribera del Duero they would be the second and third highest-scoring wines in the region in 2015. By our math they are the best value fine wines in Spain. Built for the cellar but immensely charming now there is a bright future ahead of this estate
