Yet another superb vintage of this ‘grand cru’ Mencía with its filigree tannins, alluring perfume and refreshing juiciness.

The 2023 La Vizcaína Las Gundiñas has a more herbaceous nose, from old vines that might have 5% of white grapes. It's a wet year in a wet place, a vineyard that retains very well the water in drier years. It has a different expression that seems to transcend the place and vintage (Raúl Pérez compared it with the 2013), and it's more aromatic. I still think this plot behaves better in drier years...

Nog een wijn van Pérez met alles erop en eraan: floraal (wilde roos), fruitig (kers in alle kleuren, granaatappel), zoete specerijen, sappig, iets aards, body. Verleidelijk, verteerbaar en levendig.
