Libamus
14,30€
The only sweet Mencía in the world.
Produced only with the perfect combination of a series of conditions in the harvest. Hands down, Godelia’s most exclusive product. As for its pairing, Libamus is a lot of fun when it comes to creating harmonies in your kitchen. Try it with chocolate desserts and strong cheeses but also with game dishes. The results are incredible. A sweet wine from Mencía, which asks for a repeat glass after glass until the bottle is finished.
