The 2020 Crianza is 100% Tempranillo from Pedrosa del Duero in Ribera del Duero. Garnet-red with a purple sheen. The nose presents blackcurrant and sour cherry notes along with wild herbs and hints of blood. Dry and juicy, the well-calibrated tannins are neither overly extractive nor too rigid, establishing an energetic, fluid palate with a gentle, long-lasting, lactic mouthfeel. This is an elegant take on Ribera. (Joaquín Hidalgo, Vinous, November 2023)

Medum nose with dark berries and bitter chocolate. Full bodied, potent fruit and tannins, aromatic, spicy with long finnish.

This is a lovely wine. For a crianza it had depth and structure. On the nose is plum, dark fruit, some oak. On the palate is a more complex mix of dark fruit, plum, cassis and earth with very smooth tannins giving a long supply finish. Much better after an hour on the decanter.
