Mencia hails from the north-western corner of Spain, but after 3 vintages we can confidently say that it also loves the Adelaide Hills. We were the first to plant it here, and love what it gives us: a brightly coloured, perfumed wine with hints of pepper, red berries and spice. But don’t believe us… here’s what Campbell Mattinson says:
Wow.
This is tip-top for dinking. It’s distinctive, individual, tannic and imposing, and yet it’s straight-out delicious as well. Highly drinkable but with attitude. Iron, berries, graphite and fragrant dry herbs. Tart in a good way, juicy and alive.
Did I mention tannin? It’s got plenty. It’s struck with it. And it makes it work.
The guns are ablaze here.
