Matilda Nieves Mencia Ribeira Sacra

Matilda Nieves is the 3rd generation to run her family's winery. With old Mencia vines grown on the steep slopes of Ribeira Sacra, this is quite different than the wines found in Bierzo. There's an airy and ethereal character found in Matilda's wines, and we love it.

Vinous Media - 91 points - "The 2024 Mencía Matilda Nieves is 85% Mencía with 15% Sousón and Caiño, all from Ribeira Sacra. It opens with aromas of blackberry and blueberry jam, a dark-fruited profile and a reductive touch. The palate is light, with fine tannins and juicy black fruit on the finish. Its structure is agile despite the potent nose, making this a crowd-pleasing wine."
