Lomba dos Ares is a Spanish take on Beaujolais, a blend of native grapes – Mencía, Mouratón, Garnacha Tintorera, Caiño and Bastardo – that captures the essence of Ribeira Sacra with a perfumed nose and plenty of freshness and finesse on the palate. It’s not surprising that beautiful places like this produce soulful wines. Red fruits, orange peel, violets and cedar come in layers making this delicious to sip solo but also very versatile with charcuterie, roasted vegetable or pork dishes.
