Ronsel do Sil 'Alpendre' Merenzao Ribeira Sacra, 2022

Regular price $68.00

100% Merenzao, also known as Trousseau. Grown on steep, terraced slopes in Ribeira Sacra, this relatively uncommon Galician red combines fragrant wild raspberry, red cherry, and black cherry with violet, dried herbs, and gentle spice. The palate is fine-boned and energetic, with bright acidity, delicate tannins, and a light touch of oak that adds texture rather than overt sweetness. Granite and slate soils, high-altitude sites, and the naturally delicate character of Merenzao give the wine a lifted, savory profile. Food pairing: roast duck, grilled quail, pork tenderloin, or wild mushrooms with thyme.

Details

Ronsel do Sil is a small winery in Ribeira Sacra, a dramatic wine region in northwestern Spain where vines grow on steep terraces overlooking the Sil River. Founded in 2010, the estate works with indigenous Galician varieties and emphasizes careful hand harvesting, a necessity on many of its sharply sloping vineyards. Winemaker María José Yravedra oversees wines that reflect the area's difficult terrain and distinctive local grapes. 'Alpendre' is made from Merenzao grown at elevations of approximately 500 to 750 metres, with fermentation using indigenous yeasts and maturation in neutral French oak.
