I don’t understand what all the fuss is about? This wine has received crazy good scores from critics and while it’s clean and expressive, the tannins are dry and the wine isn’t ready (don’t know if it ever will be) for consumption now. It says 95% #tempranillo and 5% #Albillo I think it has some Cabernet and I don’t really understand why put the albillo, it hasn’t done anything to this wine in the way of floral aromas or lightness. This wine is 15% alc. and the warming feeling on the finish is out of balance with the body and the fruit concentration of the wine #riberadelduerowine #riberadelduero — 2 years ago
Unfortunately past it’s time. Sort of into prune and fig and tobacco territory. Not completely dead, but not great either. #riberadelduero #tempranillo — 2 years ago
Best #inexpensive #riberadelduero I’ve tried them all blind and not blind and with friends and bang for the buck this is the best. — 9 months ago
Elegant #riberadelduerowine #riberadelduero #tempranillo from #spain noticeable medium(+) ripe fine grained tannins. Still a little tightly wound. This is going to develop nicely in the bottle. Medium(+) finish with hints of vainilla and tobacco. — 2 years ago

Yes. #riberadelduero on ice. Just chilling a little because we’re at the beach. Never heard of this wine before, obviously some bottled by/for but quite enjoyable. Deep ruby color, subtle aromas of ripe black fruit (plum, cherry and blackberry) little or no oak present in the aromas. On the palate medium+ body, balanced concentration of fruit and structure and acidity. Fine grained smooth tannins and medium finish. Not bad at all. — a year ago

Black and red fruit, some leather notes on nose on this #riberadelduero. Silken mouthfeel, dark chocolate, coffee, black fruit on palate swirling with glitzy acidity. Lovely wine with superb QPR at Costco.
