Surprising balance and delicacy

I want to drink it now

while clean mineral nuances extend the finish

Bottled in April of this

violet and plum alongside hints of spice and rosemary

Guimaro Mencia, Ribeira Sacra, Spain 2024 Cote de Beaune Surprising balance and delicacy"A humble, balanced, and versatile wine whose easy profile belies a lot of beauty and careful winemaking craft. Plump and ripe, with blueberry and black cherry. There is a nice mix of tarragon, tomato leaf, and herbal notes to keep it from crossing the line into something hot and heavy, as many Mencia are want to do as temperatures and alcohol levels climb with climate change."
