Woah. Hit this up as a bit of a refresher on Spain but it didn't really typify Tempranillo. Thankfully it was delicious. Indian mulberry, cherry pip, spice, jasmine, raw meat and slightly sweet oak. Exotic to smell and delicious to drink, expansive with brisk acidity and grippy tannin profile. I'd drink a lot more temp if all was like this.

Sep 22nd, 2016Very savoury style, with dried herbs and prominent tannin. Dark red fruits feature towards the end giving an overall well-rounded mouthfeel. Drinking nicely but will benefit from more time.

Aug 27th, 2016Potpourri hints of vanilla and a savory note...tart with an attack of tannin dark.. The berries come out on the palate they are ripe and delicious.. There is something very old world about this wine more so than any other thus far in Ribera
