January 2, 2016 - Wonderfully uncomplicated and friendly mencia. Some herbal green hints, as expected, but otherwise driven by juicy grapey red fruits. Bordering on 'sweet', at least for my tastes, but seems very well suited to the build of this wine. Must have 2 - 3 years of good drinking left.

April 27, 2015 - De couleur rubis violacé, il dégage une grande fraicheur au nez, sur les fruits rouges et les bonbons rouges. La bouche est souple et gorgée de fruits, c'est goûteux et généreux! Un bon vin de soif quoi!

June 20, 2014 - Après 30 minutes d'aération, le vin s'est livré entièrement, sur des notes de fruits rouges (cerises, canneberges) et d'épices douces. Il détient un bel équilibre en bouche avec une acidité juste, des tanins assez souples et une allonge respectable. Au finale, un vin bien fait, empreint d'une belle fraicheur et d'une très grande buvabilité. J'ai bien aimé.

December 21, 2013 - Ceci est ma première expérience avec le cépage Mencia. C'est frais et juteux. Axé sur le fruit, je trouve que le style se rapproche beaucoup d'un cru du Beaujolais. Le tout s'est avéré digeste au possible et très bien équilibré! Une belle surprise pour le prix!
