WINE DESCRIPTION
Raúl Pérez Ultreia Saint Jacques Mencía is a bold and complex Spanish red wine from Bierzo, Spain. On the nose, this delicious libation is alive with aromas of dark cherries, white pepper, and ripe strawberries. On the palate, it is a delightful balance of dark fruits, fresh herbs, and wild mushrooms. The finish is long and smooth, with a hint of smoke and earth. This is a wonderful wine that will pair well with roasted meats, game, and hearty stews. Enjoy it now or cellar it for a few years to let its flavors evolve.
