Luna Beberide Mencia 2025, 100% Mencia Grape Red Wine from Bierzo Region, Spain Reviews

4.7 Rating 18 Reviews
Read Basco Fine Foods Reviews

This young red wine is made from 100% Mencia grapes, the indigenous Spanish grape that thrives in the Bierzo region of North West Spain. The south-facing vines, situated at altitudes of 600 to 750 meters, allow the grapes to breathe at night and develop natural acidity and freshness. Fermented in stainless steel deposits and without oak, this wine showcases the pure fruity character of Mencia at its best. On the nose, it reveals black forest fruits aromas, such as blueberry, along with floral notes and mineral touches. The palate is dominated by black fruits, with a herbaceous touch in the aftertaste. This wine pairs well with meat dishes, a pork or chicken roast, pasta, cured cheeses, or Spanish ham and traditional cold cuts like Salchichon, Chorizo, and Cecina.

“This is the ideal summer red to accompany tapas & barbecue iberico- light & delicious, at its best lightly chilled and refreshing.”

“We have drunk three of the six bottles we ordered and so far have been disappointed. Two have been flavourless and the other has been only slightly better. It looks like it's a wine we can't rely on. Normally we enjoy a Mencia wine, but not this one.”
