: "This atypical and attention grabbing 2021 Tempranillo from Ribera del Duero has the signature aroma and flavor intensity from the broodingly deep, blue and blackberry fruit for which that region is famous.

Moreover, with three months skin maceration, plus another year of aging before bottling, what differentiates this wild and energetic Tempranillo from others IS the mind bending fact that it is NOT varnished with the usual layer of oak. Zero oak aging! Imagine that …. if you can.

The balanced, medium/full body has an interesting, mouth filling tension between the high-toned, juicy acidity, modest tannins and extravagant fruit at the long satisfying finish. Worth a peek if you can find it." — 8 months ago

A very pleasing, exciting, and effervescent white. The nose is flowers, ripe berries, and green apple, while the palate offers a zingy, pleasing green-apple acidity balanced by a little sweetness and a tingling effervescence. A touch of minerality in there too. The finish is clean, a little sweet and quite refreshing. Hard not to just quaff this one. Delicious. — 6 years ago

Ripe blackberry and black cherry, powerful without being heavy on the palate, tart black cherry, a little black pepper bite, and lingering gravelly tannins.

This wine had a big and complex personality for one that was medium-bodied. It was very juicy and jammy, with flavors of black cherry, plum, and blackberry jam. I was taken by how much I enjoyed this one straight away after pulling the cork, so the rating may be a tad on the generous side, but it was still a great bottle! 100% Mourvèdre. 3/31/25. — a year ago
