This outstanding clarete by Jorge Monzón of Dominio del Águila has emerged as the benchmark for the revival of Clarete. Sourced from old vineyards in La Aguilera, it is a blend of approximately 35% Tempranillo, 35% Albillo and other red and white grapes such as Bobal, Bruñal, Garnacha and Pirulés, all co-planted and fermented together. Complex, vibrant, just perfect to spend a hot summer afternoon.

Hacienda Solano’s signature wine from 60+ year old vines in La Aguilera, one of the cooler and most sought after areas in Ribera del Duero. Elegant, balanced, very little oak. Hints of licorice, herbal (mint) notes. Somewhat spicy finish — 7 years ago

9.0

A very rare single varietal Albillo, indigenous and often snubbed variety from Ribera del Duero generally reserved for local rosés (claretes). Intense and nutty nose, hints of wood, herbs and lemon. Dry, somewhat salty and mineral, smooth and creamy, nice finish — 7 years ago

9.1

Deep dark purple with slight garnet tinges in the glass. Abundant and bosomy nose of red currant and cherry pipe tobacco. Echoed on the full-bodied palate with plum and (as my dinner partner noted) a shade of beets. Medium plus tannins. Medium acidity. This is one big wine. As much so now as when it was young. Hearty omnivore fare will serve it well as would, frankly, a few more years laying down. No really. 2025 is not out of the question. — 7 years ago

9.0

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 — 7 years ago

9.0

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 — 7 years ago

Very smooth. More fruity that other Luis Canas wines I've had but not sweet or tart. Great balance. — 10 years ago

Excellent Ribera Del Duero. Very tart, almost licorice up front, then reveals a bit of sweetness. Very dark fruit. Medium to full bodied. — 10 years ago
