Aromas of cherry, cranberry, leather, cedar, graphite, Burgundian barnyard funk, and a slight whiff of cured meat.
Juice body, medium tannins in front and mid palate but very aggressive and astringent finish. Lighter acidity than I expected. Finish is a bit bitter not entirely pleasant. Okay but not great.

Decanted for an hour and itt opened up nicely. Balanced, a bit of cherry, med body. Nice acidity. Seems to have a bit of life so no rush to drink others.

Moderate amount of sediment so needs to be stood upright a few days before decanting
Improves steadily over course of meal. Cherry acidity, earthy mineral, earthy tannins. Medium body
Nice example of mencia

Very nice. Purplish red in color. Good structure. Spicy with cherry fruit.
