Mencia de Espanillo
Manufacturer:
Mike Ritchie
Tasting: Bierzo Mencia
Well integrated impression with a developed colour and savoury mouthfeel. Nicely put together. Tingling freshness and vivacity.
Pedro Ballesteros
Tasting: Bierzo Mencia
Discreet, elegant, with some development but keeping the mencía signature of earthy and meaty notes. Balanced, open, velvety, easy-going, not very complex, in a classic Spanish crianza style. Clean and attractive finish, not very long. A nice wine, lovely with consistent food
Sarah Jane Evans
Tasting: Bierzo Mencia
Dense roasted fruits with vanilla and cigar box highlights on the nose. Dark savoury profile on the palate: liquorice, nutmeg and leather over black fruits. Long finish, begin to tire
