Elegant Tempranillo-based blend (I believe it includes some Albillo) from 100+ year-old biodynamically farmed vineyards in La Aguilera, one of the most desirable areas within the Ribera del Duero appellation. Aged in used French oak barrels for 14 months. Smooth, balanced, balsamic notes — 6 years ago
Magna Vides’ entry level wine, a very fresh and unusual blend for Ribera del Duero (95% Tempranillo and 5% Garnacha), sourced primarily from the winery’s youngest vineyards. Beautiful, fragrant nose. Lots of red fruit. Subtle herbal notes (mint, licorice, typical in La Aguilera). Fresh, velvety — 6 years ago
Visual: no defectos. Disco pequeno, ruby claro. Traslucente. Buenas lagrimas.
Olfato:
Cereza, frambuesa fresca, algo a tierra pero no mucho spice. Algo tart.
Boca: mismos sabores, fruta fresca tart. Cranberry. No madera. Un balance entre el acido pero un poco mas tanico.

Unusual Ribera del Duero single varietal from some very old Bobal vines found amongst the area’s predominant Tempranillo. Native to the Utiel-Requena region in Valencia, Bobal is a rustic and quite underrated variety known for its big compact bunches and high yield, traditionally used for bulk wine production. In Ribera del Duero, where it is known as Valenciana, it was traditionally used to add color and structure to blends, but rarely vinified on its own. Taking its name from the local expression “Alma de Cántaro” (loosely translated to fool, naïve) represents Magna Vides’ heroic attempt to reclaim Ribera del Duero’s lesser-known and disappearing varieties. Fragrant. Herbal, balsamic notes. Somewhat citric, acidic finish. — 6 years ago

Aunque ya lo he valorado lo vuelvo a valorar porque no parece el mismo. De lo dulce que me parece y de la barrica me sabe a coñac. Al final (de la botella, a buenas horas) lo noto algo áspero, algo rugoso. — 8 years ago
