  By the bottle at Bludorn in Houston, TX. Decanted for about an hour at this point. Wasn’t sure how 15-year old mencia would do but this is really nice. The nose is pretty muted, some hoisin sauce, a little earthy barnyard note and strawberry candy. Palate is really singing though, great acidity, hoisin and soy sauces (but in a good way), strawberries and cranberries, slightly smoky with a slightly green leafiness that totally works. Good length on the finish. It’s definitely not Burgundy but it has kind of the same fruit and earth combo going on. Really glad we tried this weird wine.

  Good for another year or two. Much better than the bottle I had in 2018

  A little bit overdue but still on fruit. Smooth, spicy.

  À boire.
  Nez un funky (bretts?). Minéral.
  Fruit en retrait. Épices.
