Made with indigenous grape varietal Pugnitello, following traditional method using native yeast, this is a beautiful wine! Dark opaque purple burgundy in color, smells of intense cured savory meat like Jamon Ibirico, with notes of black truffle, cranberry, cigar and fig jam, sweet and firm tannin, with tastes of black tea, raisin, fig, pomegranate and date, excellent structure and a very long finish, very tasty, a velvety bold wine. — 11 years ago

This 2010 is facing a little Premox. I've stored it well, and bought it at a reputable source. At the same time it's tasty, just not quintessential Dag. The acid is there, and so is the sherry. I don't know, I'm a persnickety pedantic SOB, and I was hoping for an orgasmic volcano of flavor. With my Jamon Iberico Bellota and stinky French soft goat cheese it was a good foil. When I moved on to the gnocchi it was meh. But who am I? Just a consumer of drink I suppose. Cheers DD! You were a wild man and probably slightly crazier than I. — 10 years ago
What can I say? This is one of my favorite wines., 100% Garnacha, from Campo de Borja. Crazy Acl: 16%, too. This wine is fantastic with Manchego and Jamon. — 11 years ago

Very #tempranillo led, crunchy red fruit (cranberry, redc) and strawberry, cedar oak, graphitey, light vanilla. Light jamon meaty notes coming through, lil bit of sous bois notes. Hint of Rose. More elegant style, more acid than grip, but still unresolved and will be better with a few hours decanting or in bottle. Bitter red fruit (cranberry, pomegranate) with some sour cherry notes. Finish of cedar, vanilla and spice. Not a big softie yet, but very elegant and complex — 10 years ago
My first 2005 Ribera Del Duero, so good match with cheese truffle flavor, and jamon Iberico. I taste a lot spice such as tobacco and even bacon, with rich black ripe fruit and good amount of tannin, long lasting. What a beautiful day! — 11 years ago
Their best "en Rama" year in and year out. Fresh, saline, and vibrant. Pass the jamon, please. — 11 years ago
So multi-dimensional. The nose says, "Oh no, this is gonna be sweet, I wasn't prepared for this! Butterscotch, toffee." Palate says, "Mmmm, toasted cashews. Salty dry, and a tad sweet." This wine is like a teeter-totter between salty & sweet. Great pairing with Jamon & Comte. Excellent value. — 11 years ago

Tsssssss. Eating this with reverse ravioli carbonara, Jamon that eats truffles and chestnuts for a living AND filet mignon. Fantastic wine. This is what wine should be. — 10 years ago
