Our Tasting Note:
Inky purple in color with aromas and flavors of black cherry, anise and violets. The palate is juicy and smooth with a gratifying texture and a bittersweet twist on the finish. Typical Mencía appeal of flowers and red fruits with a hint of herbs. Soft velvety tannins balance a fruity palate with plummy richness and bright berry and bramble fruit notes. A big and powerful wine.
About the Producer:

He also worked at Château Cos d’Estournel during and after his studies at the Bordeaux-Blanquefort School of Enology and Viticulture between 1997 and 2000.
