Jaen (Mencia)

Jaen, known as Mencia in Spain, is a grape variety native to the Iberian Peninsula. Historically, this grape has often been overshadowed by its more famous peers, both Spanish and Portuguese. However, nowadays there is growing interest for Mencia, which with the right vineyard approach can produce textured, fragrant, medium-bodied red wines. The grape aromas include sour cherries, pomegranate, blackberries and black licorice, along with earthy notes of crushed gravel.
