Detailed info

The Mencià grape variety, which makes up almost all this cuvée, is a variety that offers a truly original and supple profile. An asset for the Spanish reds! We love its fruity and spicy side, coupled with a perfectly balanced woody contribution. The ideal all-purpose wine for grilled pork chops or braised beef.
