Alma de Tinto Mencía, Monterrei 2023

Red Wine from Spain - Galicia & Bierzo
3.400000000 star rating 5 Reviews
Wild-berry aromas, dusky red florals, and subtle hints of pepper and earth, this light, vibrant red captures the essence of the mencía grape, native to north-west Spain. Its juicy, elegant profile makes it a perfect choice for fans of pinot noir or gamay-style wines.

Mencía is one of Spain’s most exciting red grapes and this compelling wine comes from Monterrei, the youngest DO in Galicia, which lies inland at an altitude of around 500m. Fresh, vibrant, unoaked, there’s crunchy red fruit, lithe structure and a hint of something savoury on the finish. A great option for lovers of Pinot Noir or Gamay, this lends itself to a chill, so give it 20 minutes in the fridge and enjoy with pasta and ragu.
