Hi Everyone,
Back in stock! Today we are re-offering our most successful lot yet: Lagar de Robla Premium Mencia.
With fresh press, the regular $28 review price still seems a bit high, but the 92-point score remains spot-on.
Pricing to you in the $8’s should do the trick!
In 2021 Lagar de Robla, you won’t find a better value for classic/balanced European red wine this month or maybe ever.
Wine Enthusiast, 92 points: “Dark-violet to the eye, this wine has a nose of brambly fruits of the wood mingling with honeysuckle and sage. It fills the palate with opulent tannins and flavors of purple plum, black currant, dark chocolate, coffee bean and a touch of wild lavender that lingers on the palate.” by Wine Enthusiast, MD, 2023.
James Suckling, 90 points: “Baked blue and black fruit with some balsamic, violet-essence and hot-stones character. Medium body with creamy tannins and light berries and herbs on the palate. Unadorned and concise.” by James Suckling, JS, 2022.
Yes, this is Mencia from Bierzo, it is from an amazing vintage, it is in the perfect drinking window, and any human who drinks red wine will come back to you begging for seconds and thirds.
Cheers,
Hannah & crew
