“Plush and expansive, showing powerful red and dark berry preserve flavors. Suave, seamless and focused.”
- 94 points, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar
Why to buy: Only 175 cases of this beautiful ruby-hued Spanish red—featuring the distinctive, exotically fruity mencía grape—were made by one of the top Spanish vintners in the world.
Characteristics: Minerally notes of black raspberry, cola, cherries and spice—with the barest hint of lavender—dominate this berry-laden wine, and on the palate it reveals notes of star anise and dark chocolate. Its finish is wonderfully clear, lingering with the lightest evocation of flowers.
Varietals: 100% Mencía
