La Telleria

General
Grape Variety : Mencia
Region           : Spain/Bierzo DO

Winemaking
Vineyards over 85 years old. Yields go from 3000 kg/ha to 3500 kg/ha. Clayey soils, mostly coming from La Telleria plot, with west orientation. Manual harvested in small cases of 15 kg and grapes pass through a selection table to avoid bunches. 

Muturated in 10.000 liter wooden foudre, for about 4-5 months for ageing, depending on the vintage.

Tasting Notes
Intensive Red color with violets hints. On nose it is extremely fresh. Red fruits such as berries and wild berries; attached to the land of the Bierzo with toasted notes of smoke and licorice, are also present some touches of balsamic aromas, mainly mint.

The wine is well structured on the palate, with great depth and a persistent fruit-driven finish. Perfect balance with very fresh tannins.
