It&#8217;s from the Mencia grape variety and it comes from the fabulous Ribeira Sacra wine region in Galicia, north west Spain. The vineyards are terraced, a bit like the Douro &#8211; and this region isn&#8217;t all that far from the Douro, located just north of where the Douro river becomes the border between Portugal and Spain. It&#8217;s just my sort of red wine, and a bargain to boot.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Guimaro 2012 Ribeira Sacra, Spain<br \/>\n<\/strong>13.5% alcohol. Ripe but fresh with sweet black cherry and berry fruit. Quite Pinot-like, I guess. There&#8217;s a lovely stony, mineral undercurrent to the supple cherry and berry fruit palate, finishing very mineral, unencumbered by oak. Drinkable and quite delicious. 92\/100 (\u00a39.95 The Wine Society)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a lovely wine.
