From old-vine slopes in Bierzo, Veronica Ortega’s 2022 Roc Mencía shows dark cherry and plum fruit layered with cool herbal notes, subtle spice and a delicate oak glow. The palate is bright yet concentrated, with juicy depth, very fine but assertive tannins and impressive precision for such a warm vintage. It finishes long, with a stony, savory edge that promises even greater complexity in the years ahead.
