Grown in the dramatic slate-laced slopes of Valdeorras, the Val do Galir Mencía 2022 is a striking expression of this noble Galician red grape. Harvested from high-altitude vineyards with steep 30% inclines, this wine bursts with vibrancy and freshness. A dry, warm growing season with cool nights helped preserve natural acidity and purity of fruit—resulting in a vintage of depth and elegance.
On the nose, it reveals intense aromas of fresh red fruits, balsamic hints, and sweet spices. Aged for 8 months in a mix of French and American oak, it adds a gentle layer of toasty complexity. The palate is supple and well-structured with silky tannins and a refreshing finish. It’s a true reflection of Atlantic Spain—bright, pure, and versatile.
