Mencía

Ultreia Saint Jacques Mencía 2018

This wine has the kitchen sink in it. Dark fruit is hiding under the prominent leather, herbs, mint, tobacco, and earth. It's a fine sipper for jazz nights by the fireplace. Made my teeth red.

Jose Antonio Garcia

Unculín Bierzo Mencia 2019

Ripe blackberry and black cherry, powerful without being heavy on the palate, tart black cherry, a little black pepper bite, and lingering gravelly tannins.

Lousas Viñas de Aldea Mencía 2019

First time trying this with some age, and while it is not much evolved, it moves towards a Pinot-like elegance, especially on day 2 — a month ago

I've enjoyed a few bottles of this 👍

Losada Vinos de Finca

Bierzo Mencía 2019

Blackberry, Big League Chew, cured meat, smoke. Dark fruits on the palate with some meaty, spicy notes on the mid palate that reminds me of chorizo. Medium acidity and medium, dusty tannins. Good stuff. — 3 months ago

Descendientes de José Palacios

Villa de Corullon Bierzo Mencía 2016

Blend of 97% Mencía and 3% white grapes, deep Ruby red color with aromas of ripe black fruits, pepper spice and oak. On the palate flavors of ripe blackberry and plum with cinnamon, cacao, cacao and smoky notes. Fine chewy tannins, medium+ finish, lively acidity, nice mouthfeel, ending with vanilla and earthy chaulky mineral tones, a fine Sipping Wine! Organic! — 2 months ago

Las Gundiñas Lomas de Valtuille Bierzo Mencia 2020

Had some of the green notes that reminded me of Côt in Loire, taught but still elegant, needed some air, this bottle didn’t have a ton of fruit and I wondered if others might have a bit more. — 3 months ago
