This is an absolutely glorious wine. Approachable now but clearly a great future ahead, amazing finesse, a bit of American oak to start but then it burns and burns, Vega like they used to make it 40 years ago.

Much lighter. Fresh and balanced. Lucid fruit. Next to the 9 & 10 a much less intense wine. Pretty

Rich and intense dark fruit, anise and star anise, with plenty of oak spiraled through like a marbled rye, lots of fine tannin on the finish, still a baby, but if you have a lot it is worth drinking one now.

Wow. This Ribero del Duero stands with the best of Old World wines and maybe the best among what Spain offers.

Sweet oak, intense, black cherry, vanilla. Still needs time but very happy I got to experience.
