"This wine stands out because of its marked fruity character which brings out all the qualities and characteristics of the Mencia variety. Its time in the barrel accentuates these qualities by providing subtlety, elegance, and complexity. In the mouth, it is silky, fruity, with persistence and great kindness." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Aromas of plums, dried herbs, earth, citrus rind and sweet spices. Medium-bodied with powdery tannins. Juicy, with crunchy character and a vibrant finish." —James Suckling |
