Valdesil 'Valderroa' Mencia

In 2019, this Mencia wine hails from Bierzo, Spain. Valdesil, nestled in the mountainous Valdeorras region of Galicia, has a rich history dating back to 1885. That's when Jose Ramon Gayoso first planted vines on the property. Today, his descendants keep up the tradition, crafting top - notch wines from local grape varieties in the same slate - based, hillside vineyards. This 100% Mencia wine has a deep color. It offers intense flavors of blackberries, tart cherries, and spice, with subtle graphite hints. The ripe tannins are well - balanced, leading to a zesty, mineral - driven finish. Pair it with seared lamb shanks, pastrami sandwiches, or Manchego cheese for a delightful dining experience!

To enjoy this Valdesil 'Valderroa' Mencia wine, simply uncork it and pour it into a wine glass. Let it breathe for a few minutes to enhance the flavors.

Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. If you have some left, re - cork it tightly and store it in the refrigerator.
