This is a wine with lovely structure and focus. Drink between now and seven to ten years. ...More

Wine Spectator Top 100: 2010 #26! Deep red intense color. In the mouth the notes of ripe fruit predominate combined with smooth toasted oak. Very structured wine, high level of tannins, with sweet sensations that add volume to it when in the mouth. This crianza wine, in contrast to other Ribera del Duero crianza wines, opens up your appetite and makes you want to keep sensing its aroma. It possesses an aromatic elegance that is obtained via a balance between depth (mineral, balsamic and bush notes), freshness, ripeness (blackberries and raspberries) and its ageing in French oak barrels (which adds creaminess, structure, hints of aniseed and toasted flavors to it). In the mouth something unexpected happens: there is a vivacious entry, a fresh and juicy flow and a long dry a ...More

The 2007 Terres Basses displays dark ruby color with a slight purple hue that seems characteristic of this vintage. The complex bouquet offers rich, black fruit tones, then some earthiness, chocolate and intriguing hints of tangerine peel. Flavors follow the aromas with cherry, blackberry and blackcurrant notes creating initial sweetness that develops into a round, velvety palate impression and a long finish. Tannins are pronounced, but integrated and will resolve with time. The wine will improve for the next 2 to 3 years and cellar well for at least 8 to 10 years. Pair with lamb chops and flageolet beans, filet mignon in a red wine reduction, or a grilled Portobello mushroom risotto. ...More

The 1997 Cabernet Sauvignon (1,575 cases of an 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Malbec, 4% Petit-Verdot, 4% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Merlot blend) possesses a conservative aromatic and flavor profile. The color is a slightly saturated ruby/purple. The aromas consist of smoke, blackberries, blueberries, and subtle wood. In the mouth, it displays admirable expansiveness, richness, and flavor, but more tannin and delineation. Full-bodied, beautifully pure, and impressively rich, with melted tannin and sufficient acidity, it will benefit from another year of cellar age, and last for 15 years. Drink: 2001 - 2015. -RP ...More
