100% Mencia. Deep purple color. The fragrant nose shows violet aromas mingled with blackberry and kirsch. Black and blue fruit flavors dominate the palate entry, with an undercurrent of sauvage and leather that runs through to the finish. Mouthwatering acidity points to lengthy aging potential.

The 2007 Lacima offers a similar aromatic and flavor profile but with a bit more of everything. It is beautifully fragrant, elegant, and concentrated. Hard to resist now, it is sure to evolve and reward those with patience.
Tradition and respect for the past is what Dominio do Bibei, under the leadership of Javier Dominguez, seems to be all about. There is no stainless steel here, with cement and various sizes of wood utilized to contain the wine. There are approximately 100 acres of vines under cultivation, both red and white. -Jay Miller
