The young, unoaked, fruit-driven and varietal 2017 Mencía represents the largest volume and the character of the zone through blending grapes from different soils, expositions and altitudes. From a very warm year and early harvest, the wine fermented with indigenous yeasts with a ten to 15 day maceration. It's just pure Mencía juice with its wild and slightly rustic character, a mixture of berries and herbs and a soft palate with fine-grained tannins and a tender texture. Easy to drink. 70,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in August 2018.

Bright ruby. Spice-tinged cherry and black raspberry aromas show very good clarity and pick up suggestions of musky flowers and earth with air. Nicely concentrated but nervy on the palate, offering subtly sweet red/dark fruit flavors, exotic chewing tobacco and black cardamom qualities. Shows sharp delineation and spicy thrust on the persistent finish, which features gentle tannins and a suave floral nuance.
