Matilda Nieves, Mencia 2020, Bodegas Rectoral de Amandi

Awarded a Best In
Show medal (and Value Best In Show) and 97 points at the 2021 Decanter World
Wine Awards

85% Mencia, 8% Garnacha, 7% Sousón.

Deep cherry colour
with violet trim. It has a spectacular fruit flavour and an original presence
of slate/mineral and spicy/toasted notes. Aromas of blackberry and liquorice.
In the mouth, it has an excellent balance of fruit, tannins and acidity; the
soft tannins are particularly noticeable, providing a persistent finish that
lasts and invites you to keep tasting. It is delicious, well-structured and has
an excellent texture that coats that palate.
