2020 Mata Los Pardos Vino de Paraje, Bodegas Peique, Bierzo

Mencia

The grapes for this wonderful Mencia come from the single vineyard (Paraje) of Mata Los Pardos. With an average age of 90 years old, the low yielding vines produce fruit of exceptional quality and complexity.  The wine shows lots of red and black fruits, notably blackberry, plum and cherry with mineral tinged herbal notes and a toasted spice character courtesy of the barrel fermentation and ageing (12 months in 500ltr French oak).  This is a wine that shows wonderful purity of  fruit, a silky texture and a fair bit of understated power to boot!

2024 Mencia, Bodegas y Vinedos Merayo, DO Bierzo

Mencia

This Mencia from Merayo is such a pretty wine, showing the characteristic perfume of the Mencia grape variety.  The vibrant nose is dominated by red berry and floral (mainly violet) notes.  The palate is broad and ripe, with more red berry fruits, floral and spice characters through to the long finish.
