Geographically, it borders the provinces of Ourense, Lugo and Asturias and is a communication axis between Galicia, León and Asturias. It has a characteristic Mediterranean micro-climate, with milder temperatures than neighboring areas and its low altitude generally prevents late frosts, which is quite benign for the harvest, which is usually one month earlier than in the rest of Castilla and La Rioja
The extreme temperatures occur in winter and summer, with an average of 12.3ºC, with average minimum temperatures of 3.6ºC in the cold months and maximum temperatures of 23.6ºC in the hottest months
The rainfall is of the order of 721 mm in an average year. The average annual sunshine is 2,100 to 2,200 hours of sunshine throughout the year.
Average annual insolation is 2,100 to 2,200 hours of sunshine throughout the year
In El Bierzo, the vineyard is mainly oriented on soils of humid brown earth, slightly acidic and therefore with an absence of carbonates, typical of humid climates
The degree of acidity ranges from 4 to 8.5; in the valleys, values above 6 predominate
The determining quality factors are in the low slope terraces where the vineyards are located very close to the rivers or on semi-banked slopes or in steeply sloping vineyards at altitudes between 450 and 1,000 meters
