About this wine
Ministry of Clouds Mencia is a vibrant and expressive take on this rare Spanish varietal, beautifully adapted to McLaren Vale. Deep purple in colour, it bursts with lifted floral aromatics, sour cherry, pomegranate, and hints of liquorice and crushed rocks. The palate is nervy and lithe, showcasing succulent, layered fruit with a savoury edge. Medium-bodied yet intense, this Mencia is ideal served slightly chilled, pairing perfectly with charcuterie, grilled meats, or Mediterranean dishes.

Food pairing suggestions
This wine is a perfect match for rich red meats like beef, lamb, and venison, especially grilled, barbecued, or roasted. Aged cheeses like cheddar and parmesan, along with dishes seasoned with black pepper or smoky flavours, complement it beautifully.
It also pairs beautifully with grilled or barbecued pork, smoked meats, and cured cuts like salami and prosciutto. Mushrooms, tomato-based dishes, garlic, roasted capsicum, pasta, potatoes, and crusty bread make excellent matches.
