Ver Sacrum Doña Mencia 2017

This wine is 100% hand harvested Mencia from a single .4 Hectare plot within the estate vineyard in the Los Chacayes IG inside the Uco Valley. The 2017 is a bit darker and richer than the 2016 with notes of blueberry, plum, caramel, and tamarind on the nose. The palate explodes rich blackberry pie and hints of orange peel that finished with soft round tannins. Only 125 cases produced.
