Description

From the visionary hands of Andrea Mufatto and Gerardo Michelini, A Merced captures the wilder side of Bierzo. This 2021 bottling, made with 50% whole-cluster fermentation and native yeasts, delivers lifted aromatics and a tactile, mineral edge. Aged in used French oak, the wine balances floral delicacy with earthy depth and fine-grained texture. With a limited production of 10,000 bottles, it’s a prime example of the estate’s pure, low-intervention philosophy—and one of the most compelling Mencías in its price class.

Reviewer:Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate (Robert Parker)
Review:The 2021 A Merced is surprisingly a little higher in alcohol than the 2020 I tasted next to it, despite the much cooler year. It fermented with 50% foot-trodden whole clusters in 1,000-liter oak casks with indigenous yeasts and a long maceration. It matured in used 225-liter French oak barrels for one year. It's a little earthy but also floral and elegant, combining that wild side that seems to be inherent to this place, as I've noticed it in the last few vintages. It's quite expressive and showy, very complete and balanced. 10,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in October 2022.
