Organic/Bio Lower ABV Imagine Cabernet Franc and Pinot Noir had a thin slip of a child who was somehow strong enough to haul bins of juicy, red fruited, grapes up and down nearly vertical slops of rocky, wild herb, covered hills, drop a beef cow with a single blow and crush peppercorns between her thumb and middle finger. That’s Galicia’s Mencia grape in the hands of Pedro Rodriguez and from the Roman-terraced vines of Ribeira Sacra, and if any part of the nonsense above appeals to you, then you need to try this. Pairs with everything from fresh seafood to dry-aged beef to sunny afternoons.
For You If: Words like vibrant, fresh, juicy, and life-giving describe wines that make you swoon; you like Loire Valley Cabernet Franc or cool-climate Pinot Noir with higher-than-average fruit; you’re looking for a terrific surf & turf red.
Not For You If: You’re adverse to even a hint of fresh herb; you want big/bold textures and weight.
