I have been thrilled to see Mencia taking off in the Adelaide Hills. Here you’ll unveil some indigo tones of blackberries, boysenberry and rosemary stem. Toasty notes of roasted caraway seed, fennel and rye. Graphite, coal dust and a briar burl wood note. The nose invites you in and the palate immediately wakes you up with elevated acidity, perky and poignant black cherry juice and a sandy granular tannin profile on the finish. It’s worth seeking out for the unique and interesting shapes and forms that Mencia can showcase, here it is well integrated, punchy and suited to the cool climate of the Hills. It is in a lovely spot for drinking now or in 3-4 years. Serve with baby back ribs, with a smokey bbq sauce, that is equally lip smacking as the wine.
