Ponte da Boga 2016 P

Mencía (Ribeira Sacra)

Dark black at the core, this wine gleams a bright, blue-toned magenta color throughout the glass. There’s a dense nose of perky, tart blackberries. It is followed by a super youthful—though still a bit angular—palate of feisty, bracing acidity countered by soft, rounded tannins. It could use some time in bottle to settle down, though its chipper character would be a good bet for a picnic of sausages and hearty cheeses. Drink from late 2017 through 2019.
