Saturno Mencia, Pago de los Abuelos 2020

Tasting Notes

From a vineyard planted in 1904 on limestone soils with a 35% slope at 550m above sea level. Bright ruby colour. This is a lively, fresh Mencia with a real nod to Cabernet Franc from the Loire valley - crunchy red cherries and red summer fruits mingle with a deeply savoury herbal tone on the nose. Floral accents lift the fruit on the palate which is soft in tannin and structured by vibrant acidity. This moreish, red-fruited and cool wine is ready to go; a delicious and approachable style.
