Is Mencía a good wine?
What reviewers say
“The neighbor's dog had been barking for hours. From his owner we'd occasionally hear a cursed word, sounding strangely muffled and oddly far away. When my curiosity had, at last, won over my patience I peeked over our shared fence. There, to my great surprise, was my neighbor: deep in an earthen trench, with wooden cases of wine in various stages of being uncovered. He beckoned me over, and down, handing me a bottle - freshly uncorked - dusty neck and all: warm, woody, and autumnal. Delicious.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
