From 9,00 €

Grape: Mencía
Alcohol content: 13.5 %
Format: Bottle

Mil Ríos Mencía is the result of a careful selection of Mencía grapes, followed by cold maceration that has allowed extracting all the aromatic potential of the grape, and has remained in stainless steel tanks before resting in bottle. The aging, in addition to stability and maturity, has brought the wine mainly breadth, structure, and volume on the palate, as well as aromatic complexity and balance, without losing the character and uniqueness of the variety and the terroir.

We recommend, in order to fully enjoy the qualities of this wine, serving it at a temperature of 15-16°C, slightly higher than usual for young red wines, as well as aerating it before tasting.
