“100% Mencía. Vino de Paraje. Old bush vines in the paraje El Rapolao (Valtuille de Abajo). Alcoholic fermentation in oak foudres, with 100% of the stems and a long post-fermentation maceration. Aged in barrels of 500 litres. 1,300 bottles produced. Tasted blind. Lots of fruit. A touch of fresh cherry and a hint of leather. It offers a more open nose because of a touch of forest floor, humus and earthiness. This undergrowth nature is fully expressed on the palate. A freer expression of Rapolao, with its own idiosyncrasy. Drink 2023-2030.”

Reviews & Scores
Abundant toasty notes and a spicy twist, with notes of toasted sesame seeds even if the wine only spent 10 months in wood. It has medium-ripeness, moderate alcohol and a medium-bodied palate with a tender mouthfeel and oak-related flavors in the finish.
