Very nice Mencia from Bierzo, soft vegetables aromas, explosive red fruit, good balance! Worth to try it!

Nice light red for summer drinking. Just a little bit of tannins with strong cherry aroma. Nothing too complex with the taste tho. Purchased at cool vines in Princeton.

Tilenus Mencia '10 Earthy purple haze & dark oak toast aromas. Acidity, edge of bracing. Lots of skin & seed bitters build backbone through 14.5% ABV body. Big, slightly teetering.

A 2010, 100% mencia in a bigger, bolder style than the standard Bierzo mencias. bit rough around the edges on the finish, but tannins should soften with time. Decanting for a couple of hours would help.

Spicy! Very nice lingering creaminess. Let it breathe a little, it's a big wine.

You can't beat it for the price, BEAUTIFUL nose, silky red fruit, creamy mouthfeel, so much better than this typical price point nonsense.
