Dry climate Spanish wine. A little too bright and harsh for my liking but still just okay.

Jul 17th, 2024The strangest red wine I have had. On opening it had a nose of pig farm. Very acrid and string. The taste was very much farm but more tolerable. On day 2 it had mellowed so less tangy, and showing more earthiness and less manure. By day three it was a good full red with tannin, fruit, some layers of flavors, mushrooms. By day 4 it was a dark red wine. Totally old world. Totally not Cabernet or any regular grape. Big and bold but not rich and jammy at all. I want to try more examples of Mencia as it is really intriguing. Generally though it would go with with robust meats, cheeses and stews.

Rustic, old world red. The nose shows leather, crushed cranberry, eucalyptus, cigar box, and menthol. The palate is dry with tobacco, leather, dried cranberry, cherry reduction, new oak, sage, and plum. Medium tannins, medium minus alcohol, and medium plus acid. Despite its age, it needs decanting or at least sitting in the glass for a while. Tart, dry, and well balanced. This is a fantastic value wine.

Not a fan. Tastes more like blackberry liquor then a wine. Faint hint of fruit and grilled herbs on the nose, but not much else. Funky aftertaste (medicinal) on the very sharp finish. Better the second day.
