WE LOVE IT BECAUSE:
This wine from Dominio do Bebei is made with mainly Mencia, a grape variety native to the western part of the Iberian peninsula. In the glass you’ll find layers of dark fruits, fennel, smoke and spice wrapped in fine tannins and earth. Grown on steeply terraced vineyards in the rugged valleys of Ribiero Sacra, the vines are anywhere from 26 to 100 years old. The wine is aged in both new and neutral oak barrels for 15 months which adds spicy complexity to compliment the fruitiness and enhances aging potential.
