Alodio

2008 Ribeira Sacra Mencia

The 2008 Global Wine Co Alodio is an exceptional red wine that beautifully captures the essence of the Ribeira Sacra region. Made from the Mencia varietal, this wine showcases a medium-bodied profile with vibrant acidity, offering a delightful balance that enhances its character. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing luscious notes of dark berries, plum, and subtle hints of floral undertones. Tannins are notably firm, providing structure that harmonizes with the wine's lively character. As a dry wine, the Alodio maintains a refreshing quality that makes it an excellent choice for pairing with a variety of dishes, from rich stews to grilled vegetables, or simply enjoyed on its own. This vintage is a testament to the grape's potential in the Ribeira Sacra, reflecting the region's unique terroir and winemaking traditions.
