If you want to know what slate does to Mencía, this single parcel in Ribeira Sacra gives you about as clear an answer as Spain can. Camiño Novo ("new road") is a small amphitheater of vines facing southeast at 430 meters in Amandi, a subzone of Ribeira Sacra in Galicia, Spain's northwest corner. Lousas is the Galician word for the slate that covers Amandi's slopes, and the range is named after it. The stone soaks up heat from the daytime sun, which helps the grapes ripen. Alfonso Torrente is the partner who farms the vines organically. Envínate ("wine yourself") is four friends who met studying winegrowing in Alicante and built their project around old-fashioned farming and letting each parcel speak for itself. Wine, first and foremost, is about pleasure, and a 2020 with a few years in bottle is a very good way to find it in Mencía.

More about Envinate

Envínate is four friends, Laura Ramos, José Martínez, Roberto Santana and Alfonso Torrente, who met studying oenology at the University Miguel Hernández in Alicante. They split up to live in the places they work: Alfonso in Ribeira Sacra (Lousas), Roberto in Tenerife (Táganan, Benje), Laura and José in Almansa (Albahra). Working with old local growers and traditional methods, they bottle clear, precise expressions of each parcel in tiny quantities. When a release lands, it disappears fast.

Flatiron's Take

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Pulpo a la gallega with pimentón and olive oil; roast chicken with garlic and thyme; grilled lamb chops; wild mushroom and chorizo stew; Galician-style pork with paprika and potatoes.

Tasting Profile

Expect the classic slate-grown Ribeira Sacra profile: red cherry and darker berry fruit (Garnacha Tintorera typically adds colour and depth), with violets and peppery spice over a stony, mineral core. Medium-bodied and tightly focused, with bright acidity and fine tannins, it finishes dry, savoury and long. Think of a more mineral, peppery cru Beaujolais.
