70% Mencía, 30% Palomino from very old single vineyard in Liebana (Cantabria). Very floral, red fruit and violets. Beaujolais meets Barolo.

Well this is a fun treat. Opened 11 days ago and left on my counter since. Still fresh, although texture is super lush and bouquet has that bit of oxidative savor.

The most beguiling Mencia creature I've encountered. Vibrant, tortured, strange.

Interesting. Perfumed but even; bright and lean. A little dirty on the edges.

Similar to the '12 I had a few months ago. Medium bodied, earth, funk, spice, good acidity. Pretty structured.

Jura sensibility meets mencia. Reminiscent of those funky reds but with greater heft. Funk on the nose, dark fruits, good acidity
