Ribera del Duero DOCa Tinto "Crianza" 2019 - Dominio del Soto

A Ribera del Duero DOCa Tinto Crianza from Dominio del Soto, made from 100% Tempranillo grown on terraces between 850 and 900 metres above sea level on clay and limestone soils. The grapes are harvested by hand and vinified in cement, which highlights the fruit and terroir, before 12 months' ageing in oak barrels. A further passage in cement vats follows before bottling and release. It is an organic red suited to informal occasions. Dense, deep ruby red with violet reflections, it offers an intense, layered bouquet of dark fruit, spice, aromatic herbs and coffee. The palate is very concentrated and savoury, with liquorice and cinnamon notes over a fruity background. Velvety and round, it finishes long and persistent on blackcurrant and vanilla.
