Shaped by its high-altitude, cooler terroirs, the 2021 Red Ribera del Duero delivers a ripe, bold expression with a deep, almost black hue. The nose is concentrated and powerful, brimming with smoky accents and an abundance of dark fruit. On the palate, it reveals a full, dense profile framed by smooth, well-integrated tannins. Subtle spice notes and perfectly balanced aging add depth, while the polished tannins give structure without harshness. A seamless and compelling wine, rated 95/100 by our Selection Committee. |
