The Valdesil Mencia Carballo 2018 is a stunning representation of the Mencia grape from the Valdeorras region of Spain. This vintage, produced by the esteemed Bodegas Valdesil, is a deep ruby red in colour, with a brilliant clarity that hints at its quality. On the nose, aromas of ripe blackberries, cherries, and plums intermingle with subtle notes of earth and spice, creating a complex and enticing bouquet. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with a smooth and velvety texture, showcasing flavours of dark fruits, tobacco, and a touch of vanilla. The tannins are well-integrated, providing structure and balance to the wine. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lingering impression of ripe fruit and a hint of smokiness. This Valdesil Mencia Carballo 2018 is a must-try for any wine lover, and a true testament to the quality of Valdeorras winemaking.
