Barco de Piedra Ribera del Duero 2019
Barco de Piedra Ribera del Duero 2019
This spicy, complex medium-bodied red has aromas of raspberry, violet and rose petals. Heady smoke- and spice-accented dark berry and cherry aromas, with hints of game and violet emerging with air. Broad and fleshy on entry, then tighter in the middle, offering gently sweet blackberry and cherry flavors and repeating smokiness. It is a very accessible example of high value wines from Spain.
This is a “no makeup” take on Tempranillo, grown in a single vineyard
in the most prestigious district of Ribera del Duero. 100% estate fruit, and small production. The vineyard is located 1.5 km north of the Duero River, 7 km east of the legendary Vega Sicilia and 4 km west of Pesquera. With minimal oak ageing, the wine shows depth yet drinkability even while young, and does a very great job introducing this legendary region to new fans.
