Van Gus Vana
Manufacturer:
Mike Ritchie
Tasting: Bierzo Mencia
Savoury, fleshy aromas dominate a tarry mineral dimension too. Clean, correct but lacks vibrant attack and energy. Finishes short.
Pedro Ballesteros
Tasting: Bierzo Mencia
Meaty, animal, rustic. Dense, with lots of velvety tannins, fills your mouth with savage fruit but keeps a very correct structure. Long, with a very sensual finish. Great experience for those looking for unusual wines but not willing to go for funky experiences.
Sarah Jane Evans
Tasting: Bierzo Mencia
Lively aromatic appeal: cigar box, spices, herbs, ripe berry fruit. Less of the generosity of flavour on the palate: drying tannins and liquorice mask dark fruits.
