It is made from 100% Tempranillo and the vines range from 60 to 120 years in age. The bouquet on this young Ribera shows hints of wild berry, cherry, plum, wet stone, mineral ,chalk, clay, and cacao powder. On the palate flavors of black cherry, semi-sweet cacao powder, earthy clay, and blackberry notes all grace the palate in a balanced and complex effort. Wet stone, earth, and mineral also make their presence known on the palate as the wine finishes dry with some chalky but fashionable tannin. I dig this wine and for the price it's really tough to beat! Balanced and sharp acidity helps this wine pair well with food and I highly recommend it with pizza, which is what I just tasted it with. 88-89 points
