Salterio Mencia DO Bierzo Adegas Galegas 2022

Salterio Mencia DO Bierzo Adegas Galegas 2022

Native to north-west Spain and thriving on slate terraces, the Mencía grape variety delivers delicately fruity, lightly perfumed red wine with a characteristic mineral note. Grown in the heart of the Bierzo region, a lush and fertile enclave of Castilla y León, this versatile Mencía is a great example from its most renowned appellation. Fragrant on the nose with delicate aromas of red cherries, blackberries and a hint of violet. The persistent mineral note present on the nose is echoed on the palate. Dense with a rounded texture, Salterio displays concentrated flavours of sweet and savoury cherry, complimented by light floral notes and lingering freshness. Slightly chilled, Salterio Mencía will make a refreshing aperitif and will definitely pair with a wide array of dishes such as: traditional Spanish cold cuts, “arroz al horno” (baked rice), bean stew, Galician beef empanada, roasted turkey.

"Native to North-Western Spain, this MencĂ­a comes from 70-year-old vines which impart it a succulent fruit concentration, smooth tannins and mineral note true to the region. "
