A little heat with plenty of super ripe black fruits...but what else is new from Ribera del Duero? The good news is that this is finally out of its sleeping phase. Took 3-4 years. The fruit is showing through the oak. The oak is more integrated. I won't say it's singing. But I will say it's strutting around. There's a lot of life in this wine.

Still so powerful and fresh. Great nose with loads of black fruit, cocoapowder and acidity to balance that.

A really great Temperanillo with lots of character right out of the bottle. Strong berry flavours giving way to chewy leather. Just had to breathe a couple of minutes in the glass and it was ready to go.

Blackest of fruit. Almost syrup. Big big big. This is day 3 of the open bottle and still big. The challenge for us is how loaded these wines are. American oak is predominant in Ribera Del Duero. Not 14.5% alc as per label.
