“Best in Show”

A wood fairy on her swing, su-rrounded by the idyllic forests of the ribeira sacra, leaves behind a tail of flavors evoking the unmistakable nuances of mencia. this brand continues the family saga, introducing a modern and comtemporary wine named after one of the founder's granddaughters, Manolo Arnoya.

Made with grapes of the Mencía variety from the D.O. Ribeira Sacra where its vineyards produce this precious treasure. Nice cherry color with violet trim. It has a spectacular fruit flavor and an original presence of slate mineral and spicy and toasted notes.

This cherry red wine with violet trim has notes of blackberry and licorice, in perfect harmony. In the mouth, its balance stands out with soft touches of tannin, providing a persistent finish that lasts and invites you to continue testing.

It is delicious, well structured, it passes smoothly and its fleshy tannin gently covers the palate.
