Medium/ dark purple with mild clearing at rim - appears unfiltered Medium plus aromas of sour/ sweet red and black cherries with beautiful herbaceousness and underbrush aromas in background Medium palate of red cherries and borscht Medium plus acidity and medium plus tannins which are fairly well integrated and a medium length Drinking well now but will prob be drinking better in 2-4 yrs

Kirsch on the nose. Slightly tart with brighter red fruit on the palate, earthy notes developing after a couple hours in the decanter. Light playful finish. Very interesting wine, my first experience with Mencia, and overall very fun experience. Was better with food, and for us was a perfect match with our Mediterranean dinner of chicken, hummus, tahini, and pitas.

smooth and approachable, but not particularly distinctive for the price.

Agree with tasting notes before. I like the brightness with a rich food combo.
