Tilenus Ecologico Mencia 2022
Produced by Bodegas EstefanĂa, located in the Bierzo Designation of Origin (DO), in the Castilla y LeĂłn region of northwestern Spain. Bodegas EstefanĂa was founded in 1999 when the FrĂas Family converted an old creamery into a winery. The winery's flagship brand, 'Tilenus', is a tribute to Teleno, the ancient Celtiberian god of war, and the labels feature a Roman coin discovered in one of their vineyards, reflecting the region's Roman heritage. Bodegas EstefanĂa manages nearly 40 hectares of century-old vineyards with clay soils rich in minerals. The 'Ecologico' in the name signifies that the wine is from an organic wine producer, and the estate is currently in the organic certification process.
Wine Description
This wine is a single-varietal red made from 100% MencĂa grapes. MencĂa is a native grape of the El Bierzo region and is often praised for its ability to produce aromatic and fresh wines with a longer life in the bottle.
While specific tasting notes for the 2022 'Ecologico' are limited, the MencĂa grape typically offers a flavour profile that includes raspberry, pepper, and leather, along with tart cherry, violet, anise, and blackberry notes. The style of MencĂa is generally medium-bodied with refreshing acidity and silky, supple tannins. The 'Ecologico' style, in particular, would aim to preserve the authentic, natural character of the fruit.
