The wine region of Ribeira Sacra
Galician DO of heroic viticulture on the vertiginous slopes of the Miño and Sil canyons, terraces among Europe's steepest. Mencía signature Atlantic red: fine and fresh with signature notes of raspberry, sour cherry, violet, fresh herbs, black pepper and slate mineral touch, delicate tannins and lively acidity — drinkable and elegant, a world away from warm Spanish reds. Taut Godello and saline Albariño in whites. Atlantic climate, schistous soils.
The wine region of Galice
Oceanic northwest Spain, cradle of the great Iberian whites. Signature Albarino of Rias Baixas: lively, saline whites with signature notes of citrus, white peach, white flowers, fresh almond and iodine minerality, a taut palate — a perfect match for Atlantic seafood. Also premium Godello (pear, citrus, butter), aromatic Treixadura. Supple Mencia reds (raspberry, herbs, graphite).
The word of the wine: Tanin
A natural compound contained in the skin of the grape, the seed or the woody part of the bunch, the stalk. The maceration of red wines allows the extraction of tannins, which give the texture, the solidity and also the mellowness when the tannins are "ripe". The winemaker seeks above all to extract the tannins from the skin, the ripest and most noble. The tannins of the seed or stalk, which are "greener", especially in average years, give the wine hardness and astringency. The wines of Bordeaux (based on Cabernet and Merlot) are full of tannins, those of Burgundy much less so, with Pinot Noir containing little.
