"An altogether different style of wine from the Mazzano, with much softer and riper fruit aromas and flavors. Ripe red cherry, dates and figs on the nose, lifted by an enticing floral component. The wine's sweeter tannins give it a silkier mouth feel than the Mazzano. Finishes silky, warm and long, with flavors of red fruits and milk chocolate. This gained in complexity as it opened in the glass."

Spain has the largest area under vine of any country and a deep tradition of oak-aged reds. Tempranillo-based wines from Rioja and Ribera del Duero, alongside Priorat's Garnacha and Carinena, anchor its fine-wine reputation.
On Spain's high central plateau, Ribera del Duero makes powerful, concentrated Tempranillo (locally Tinto Fino). Wide day-night temperature swings yield deeply colored, structured and age-worthy reds.
