The 2007 Tebaida P5 was sourced from a parcel planted in 1905. Dense purple in color, it sports a fragrant aromatic array of pain grille, mineral, violets, incense, black cherry, and black raspberry. On the palate it deftly combines elegance with power. Loaded with succulent fruit balanced by an excellent acid structure and well-integrated oak, this concentrated, lengthy Mencia will evolve for 5-6 years and see its 20th birthday in fine form.
Casar de Burbia is a 57 acre estate consisting of 22 contiguous Mencia parcels consolidated in 1989.
