The grape

MencĂ­a

Best known in Bierzo, Ribeira Sacra, DĂŁo

A fragrant red grape from north-west Spain. Red cherry, floral notes and fresh acidity, with a mineral edge from slate soils. Elegant and medium-bodied, it is often compared to Cabernet Franc or Pinot Noir.

Where it's from

Ribeira Sacra

Spain

Breathtaking terraced vineyards clinging to the steep slopes of the Sil and Miño river canyons in Galicia. Working them is so tough it's known as heroic viticulture. Mencía makes fragrant, fresh, mineral reds with real elegance. A region with a sense of drama, in the landscape and in the glass.
