Flavour Profile
Ribeira Sacra, in remote Galicia, is one of Spain’s most dramatic wine regions – vertiginous river valleys where old-vine Mencía grows on narrow slate terraces and everything is worked by hand. It’s here that celebrated winemaking collective Envínate craft their Lousas Viñas de Aldea 2023, a wine that has become a reference point for the region.
Pale garnet in colour, it opens with red cherry, pomegranate, wild herbs and a whisper of smoke – classic cool-climate Mencía. The palate is vibrant and mineral, with crunchy red fruit, savoury spice and that unmistakable Atlantic freshness.
Critics consistently praise Lousas for its precision and purity, with recent vintages earning 94+ point acclaim. The 2023 continues that rich vein of form, offering finesse, authenticity and a glimpse into one of Spain’s most exciting modern wine regions. A must for fans of elegant, Burgundy-style reds.
