A meaty, fleshy and powerful Ribera del Duero, typical of low yield grapes (28hl/ha).
Téofilo is one of the few oenologists who uses 1 to 2% of the white Albillo grape in the blend.
Vinification
18 months in French and American oak (1/3 new oak).
Storage potential
8 years
To serve
Decant preferably (especially in the first 3 years) and serve at 18°C in a large glass.
Trial analysis
Sweet aromas of chocolate and vanilla make your mouth water. Cranberry and blackberry notes bring liveliness to the nose. Silky-velvety on the palate, even in its young years. Noble soft tannins. A typical, powerful and voluminous Ribera.
This very traditional bodega does not go for the temptations of modern techniques and style.
