Vía Romana Mencía is a red wine from Ribeira Sacra that has gained recognition for its quality and authenticity. This single varietal Mencía, certified vegan, stands out for its freshness and elegance. The production begins with careful hand harvesting, where the grapes are selected from specific vineyards and transported by gravity to stainless steel tanks. During the controlled alcoholic fermentation (24-26 ºC), the characteristic aromas of the variety are preserved. Subsequently, malolactic fermentation takes place to smooth the acidity, using pea protein as a clarifying agent, ensuring its vegan certification as well. In tasting, this wine presents an attractive cherry red color with violet reflections. Its aroma is elegant and intense, predominantly featuring ripe red fruits like cherry, strawberry, and raspberry, complemented by delicate floral notes and a hint of spice. On the palate, it reveals a perfect balance, with vibrant acidity and soft tannins, culminating in a lingering finish reminiscent of fruits and flowers. Vía Romana Mencía is ideal for pairing with dishes like grilled meats, lamb chops, and aged cheeses, as well as enjoying with appetizers and light stews. This wine combines tradition and innovation, offering an authentic and sustainable experience. It’s an excellent choice for those seeking a Galician red with character, balance, and a commitment to the environment.
