Vía Romana Mencía
Vía Romana Mencía is one of the most prestigious Galician red wines, a wine that expresses the essence of Ribeira Sacra and the care of a family tradition. Certified as vegan, this single-varietal Mencía stands out for its authenticity, freshness, and elegance.

Production
Made with hand-selected Mencía grapes from vineyards in Ribeira Sacra, Vía Romana combines tradition and innovation. After manual harvest, the grapes are destemmed and gravity-fed into stainless steel tanks. Alcoholic fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature (24-26 ºC) to preserve the varietal aromas. Malolactic fermentation is then carried out to soften the acidity. Pea protein is used as a clarifying agent, allowing this wine to be certified as vegan, making it a pioneer in Galicia in this aspect. The wine is rounded in the bottle before being released to the market.

Tasting notes
In appearance, it presents an attractive cherry red color with violet reflections, clean and bright. On the nose, it is elegant and intense, with aromas of ripe red fruit (cherry, strawberry, raspberry) and delicate floral notes (violet, rose), over a balsamic background and a spicy touch. In the mouth, it is fresh, balanced, and glyceric, with vibrant acidity, soft tannins, and a persistent finish that leaves fruity and floral memories.

Pairing
Perfect to accompany grilled meats, lamb chops, aged cheeses, cured meats, and traditional Galician dishes. It also pairs well with appetizers and mild stews.

Final conclusion
Vía Romana Mencía is a red wine that combines respect for tradition with an innovative touch, offering an authentic and sustainable experience. An excellent choice for those looking for a Galician red wine with character, balance, and a commitment to the environment.
