I didn't get the new vintage of the Tinto Selección, so the las red was the 2011 Tinto, a Mencía cuvée from slope vineyards which fermented in stainless steel and aged in new and used, 300- and 400-liter French oak barrels. It has aromas of wild flowers and ripe blueberries, quite harmonious. The palate is medium-bodied with some lactic flavors and echoes of cafe au lait that is quite showy and has good acidity and ultra-fine tannins in a good commercial way. 75,000 bottles were produced.

Smoky and toasty notes frame plum, licorice, tobacco and mineral notes in this savory red. Has a polished texture, with balanced structure, good depth and a clean, spicy finish. Drink now through 2025. 6,000 cases made.??–TM??Region: Spain / Bierzo Select to Add
