Tasting Notes – Riberal Crianza 2019
Appearance
A vivid ruby red colour, bright and clear, with a medium-high depth that catches the light elegantly.
Aroma
Complex and captivating, with powerful aromas of ripe black fruit, intertwined with vanilla, spices, and subtle balsamic undertones. Layers of oak-ageing notes from the French and American barrels add toasty, elegant nuances that linger enticingly.
Palate
Broad and structured on the palate, this Crianza delivers concentrated dark fruit flavours, interwoven with spice, vanilla, and a touch of leather and tobacco. The mouthfeel is harmonious and balanced, with fine tannins and a long, savoury finish marked by a persistent retronasal expression of dark berries and gentle oak.
Winemaking and Ageing
The wine spends 12 to 14 months in a mix of French (80%) and American (20%) oak barrels, with racking every 3 to 6 months, enhancing clarity and structure. Post-barrel ageing, it rests for a minimum of 12 months in bottle in an underground cellar at a controlled temperature of 16°C, ensuring optimal development before release.

| Winery | The mountainous altitudes and violent extremes of temperature which characterise Ribera del Duero have failed to discourage winemakers. Soil conditions are perfect for vine-growing, and the grapes produced are of particularly fine quality. This bodega was established in 1988 and now extends to 200 hectares of vineyard planted exclusively to Tinto Fino, the local name for Tempranillo. |
