Although mostly thought of as a Galician variety, Mencía (called Jaen in Portugal) is also at home in the Portuguese region of Dão, where it thrives on granitic soils. As this example – from one of Luisa Amorim’s many projects – showcases, it can seamlessly weave mineral tannins and succulent fruit, tailed by subtle smokiness. A delicious conversation-starter, best enjoyed slightly chilled.
