El Bierzo, Castilla y León, Spain | 100% Mencía
Hand harvested bunch by bunch, fermented with its wild yeasts and aged for 14-16 months in French oak plus an additional ageing of 24 months in bottle.
Wine of intense ruby colour with notes of jammy wild berries, balsamic herbs, brioche and graphite. Balanced, dense and silky.
It could be served with intense-flavoured recipes such as stews, game or lamb and would be great if you open and decant the wine 30 minutes before taste. Recommended temperature around 16°C.
