Ribera Del Duero Tempranillo
Ribera del Duero, Castilla y León, Spain
Deep Ruby Ribera del Duero from vines mostly up to 80-years old, (blended with amount of younger vine fruit), aged for 18 months in predominately French oak (20% new), aromas of complex fragrant fruit, spice and oak. On the palate ripe cherry and blackberry fruits, powerful yet elegant, with herb spice & smoky oak notes on full soft tannins. Long finish, nice mouthfeel, ending with spice and mineral earthy tones, a joy to Sip this Fine Wine. Aging well, great now!

Dec 31st, 2020This will benefit from more time in the cellar, but drinking well now. You wouldn’t know this was Tempranillo if you tasted it blind. I’m loving this.

Smooth as silk. Stunning fruit profile. Beautiful weight on the mid-palate. Extended finish.

Rich and structured, aromas and flavors of cinnamon, vanilla and smoke. But fruits are still apparent, like blackberry and black cherry. Tannins are velvety and acidity is medium + and adds the necessary structure. This wine is yummy, it’s a go-to wine for me - I quite love it!

Aug 6th, 2018Surprising for its contemporary posture at such a young age. Lovely soft notes of maraschino cherries and cedar on the nose. The palate is restrained, soft and rounded. Tannins are supple, and are already integrated. Really nice length and harmonious finish. Ready to drink now.

One of the best expressions of Duero Tempranillo. Soft and balanced wine with integrated tannins. Chocolate and cigar box dominate the palate with aromatics of dark fruit and red plums.
