This red wine from Galicia (Spain) is fresh and young on the nose showing notes of raspberries, strawberries, licorice, anise, violets and aromatic herbs. Very well balanced on the palate with velvety tannins and juicy fruit concentration.
Winery
Envínate (translates as "wine yourself") is the brainchild of 4 friends, winemakers Roberto Santana, Alfonso Torrente, Laura Ramos, and José Martínez. This gang of 4 formed back in 2005 while studying enology at the University of Miguel Hernandez in Alicante. Upon graduation, they formed a winemaking consultancy, which evolved into Envínate, a project that focuses on exploring distinctive parcels mainly in the Atlantic-inflected regions of Ribeira Sacra and the Canary Islands. Their collective aim is to make profoundly pure and authentic wines that express the terruño of each parcel in a clear and concise manner.
To this end, no chemicals are used in any of the Envínate vineyards, all parcels are picked by hand, the grapes are foot-trodden, and the wines are fermented exclusively with wild yeasts, with a varying proportion of whole grape clusters included. For aging, the wines are raised in old barrels and concrete, and sulfur is only added at bottling, if needed. The results are some of the most exciting and honest wines being produced in Spain today.
This red wine from Galicia (Spain) is made from 100% Mencia. It is fresh and young on the nose with notes of raspberries, strawberries, licorice, anise, violets, and aromatic herbs. This leads to a very well-balanced palate with delicious savouriness along with velvety tannins and juicy fruit concentration. Lousas Vino de Aldea by Envinate pairs well with red and white meats, pasta, cured cheeses, and traditional Galician dishes. Available for deliveries within Metro Manila.
