Description
GRAPE VARIETY
100% Mencia
WINE NOTES
This young red wine is made from 100% Mencia grapes, the indigenous Spanish grape that shows all its splendour in the Bierzo region, in North West Spain. The vines from which this wine is made of are south facing and within altitudes of 600 to 750 meters. This high altitude allows grapes to breath during night time and favour natural acidity and freshness in this wine. This wine is fermented in stainless steel deposits and sees no oak.
This is a perfect example of what a Mencia young wine should be. On the nose, it shows the pure fruity character of Mencía grape at its best, with black forest fruits aromas (blueberry), floral notes and mineral touches. On the palate, the black fruits dominate with a herbaceous touch in the after taste.
FOOD PAIRING
Try it with meat dishes, a pork or chicken roast, pasta dishes, cured cheeses or Spanish ham and other Spanish traditional cold cuts (Salchichon, Chorizo, Cecina).

How to cook with Luna Beberide Mencia 2024
This is a classic tapas dish and part of a collection of chorizo recipes, can be seen in many tapas restaurants in the UK. However, it is not always made properly. The secret to a tasty red wine chorizo is to reduce the red wine until it becomes syrupy, adding a generous dollop of honey, so the chorizo gets coated in a lovely sweet red wine syrup.
