Gorgeous starbright ruby in the glass. Morello cherry, hibiscus, iced tea, crushed dill. Might be a little past its prime.

Sep 19th, 2015Mencia; Think Cabernet franc goes to Spain. A floral nose with a decent amount of spice, some subtle plummy dark fruits and some red fruit notes, and aggressive vanilla and caramel notes from the oak. Medium tannins and Medium-bodied on the palate, with the red fruits showing on the palate and a tad spicy on the finish. Finish is a bit short, but a tasty Spanish wine. (Note there's a bit of Bret showing in my bottle, but blows off after decanting)

One of my favorites - takes me back to a great day in Sevilla every time I open a bottle.
