Classic Ribera, 2005 is drinking beautifully right now. Red/black fruit, crème brûlée and black licorice on the nose. Mid palate donkey punch and finish were the standouts. Outstanding

Delicious Ribera Del Duero. Perfect plum and dark fruit nose. Fabulous cola, dark cherry, licorice and caramel on the palate. Leather and oak in the finish. A great Spanish wine.

On the nose: dark cherry, dark plum, dried blueberries, med (+) intensity, soy sauce, slight jam, light developing characteristics of leather and coffee, hint of black current, anise. On the palate: full of dark fresh fruit, med + acidity, med+ tannin, med + to high alcohol, woody youth tannin. A very good wine, can go for another 10 years to soften the wine and let the fruits further emerge... Still nice now with some saucy grilled meats... Definitely a good wine... Makes me hungry sipping this!
