The 97-point Merayo Las Tres Filas Bierzo Mencía 2020 offers a vibrant expression of the Mencía grape with bright red and black fruit flavors like cherry, blackberry, and plum, layered with subtle herbal notes of mint and thyme. It shows a medium to full body with balanced acidity and fine, chalky tannins that provide structure without overpowering the delicate fruit. Earthy undertones and a mineral streak add complexity, reminiscent of a refined Loire Cabernet Franc or a nuanced Beaujolais Cru. Oak influence is gentle, contributing a hint of spice without masking the wine’s freshness and purity. This wine’s silky texture and long finish make it versatile and approachable.
Serve slightly chilled around 55-60°F with grilled lamb, roasted duck with fruit sauce, or hearty mushroom risotto to complement its vibrant fruit and herbal character.
