Wine & Vintage

Wine & Vintage

Mencia is a native variety of Spain, in particular the Bierzo region in the northwest of the country. Oliver’s Taranga are the first to plant it in Australia. We decided to get our (mostly female) cellar door team on board to learn about the winemaking process – and as such the ‘Chica’ was born! Our winemaker Corrina uses a fermentation technique called ‘Carbonic Maceration’, which results in a lovely aroma & texture on the wine.

Aroma

Aroma

Watermelon juice, strawberries, fairy floss, and a hint of lime.

Palate

Palate

Light, fresh, savoury with plenty of watermelon and dried strawberries. A vibrant margarita-like acidity with raspberry tea-like tannin that adds texture.
