Las Gundiñas Lomas de Valtuille Bierzo Mencia 2020

Had some of the green notes that reminded me of Côt in Loire, taught but still elegant, needed some air, this bottle didn’t have a ton of fruit and I wondered if others might have a bit more. — 2 months ago

Unculín Bierzo Mencia 2019

Ripe blackberry and black cherry, powerful without being heavy on the palate, tart black cherry, a little black pepper bite, and lingering gravelly tannins.
