Mencia Galice Galice vin rouge tranquille

Origin

Northwest Spain

Mencía from Ribeira Sacra — a red variety vinified in the Ribeira Sacra appellation in Galicia, on the vertiginous schist terraces carved into the cliffs of the Sil and Miño gorges, at slopes up to 85% — is the most dramatic and elegant expression of Mencía. These heroic terraced vines allow only manual work.
