The 2015 Art showed a lot more balanced and with much better integrated oak than in previous years. The wine is pure Mencía from a cool vintage. The fruit is black rather than red, ripened to perfection, with a serious and classical profile and showing some restraint. The palate is compact with fine-grained, abundant tannins and very good length. This has all the ingredients and balance for a nice development in bottle. 15,000 bottles produced.

This red is broad-shouldered, with firm tannins framing savory notes of dried herb, licorice and loamy earth. Features a core of black cherry and plum flavors, and the finish lingers with floral and mineral details. Drink now through 2028. 2,000 cases made, 200 cases imported.??–TM??Region: Spain / Bierzo Select to Add
