The Wine Advocate:

It wasn't easy to improve on the already impressive 2016, but the 2018 Mencía de Espanillo has done it! As before, it comes from old vineyards in the high-altitude village of Espanillo where the soils are decomposed slate. It fermented in a 5,000-liter oak vat with indigenous yeasts and matured in a 3,000-liter oak foudre for 16 months. The nose is subtly floral, as elegant as the best vintage so far, expressive, nuanced and open, with blood orange notes of freshness and a showy, spicy twist. The palate is very balanced and serious, textured with fine-grained tannins and has an austere, stony-like feeling, clean flavors and a remarkably long finish. 4,000 bottles were filled in April 2020.
