Lousas Vinas de Aldea Vinos Atlanticos Red Blend

Ah, beautiful lightweight Mencia

A little reduces at first but opened up with beautiful fruit and great energy

Some Brett. Some energy and fizzyness. Dark fruit. Fun but funky.

Medium ruby; medium intensity aromas of blackberry, blueberry, bramble, mushroom, damp earth, purple flower, meatiness; dry, medium acid, medium minus tannins, medium alcohol, medium body, medium intensity flavors of blackberry, blueberry, bramble, mushroom, damp earth, underbrush; medium finish, very elegant and complex

balanced, bright, beautiful Mencia. envinate is so so talented.

Cinnamon, nutmeg & clove at first, then lots of layers of baked cherries & rhubarb, leather and savory notes.

Where the cool kids and the somms can get along. Wildly balanced in a harmony we can all agree upon. Potpourri of fresh fleshy cherry, stems, full of green pine and acetone and crystalized Luden cough drops, residues of mint, meat and blood.

Texture like crushed velvet. Damn soft, subtle cush crunch.

Stunner

Medium deep ruby garnet with reasonably wide garnet rim . Quite aromática with spiced dark cherry , wild strawberry , cacau touches , fresh herbs also . On the palate quite ripe cherry fruit , with quite refreshing acidity , slightly chewy tannins with a bitter touch on the ok finish . Drink now and over the next 3-5 years
