Reds hardly get more beautiful (& delicate) than this! From winemaking legend Goyo García Viadero in Ribera del Duero comes this aromatic, stunner of a Tempranillo (with a splash of white grapes for infinite freshness & tExtUre) from 55-year old wise vines farmed 900 metres above sea level. Break out the decanter for this light-hued beauty and watch it unfurl before your very eyes. Fermented and aged in 8 to 10 year old French barrels for added finesse and bottled without fining, filtration or sulphites, this showcases Tempranillo’s depth while putting freshness & drinkability at the forefront. Strawberry balsamic, dirty cracked leather boots, blackberry liquorice, the bitter woody-graphite aroma of a fresh HB2, dried mushroom packet, sloe, with swaddling spice of black pepper, clove, nutmeg, game charred on an open flame & cowboys at night. For a serious wine, elicits such a warm, loosey-goosey feeling in the enjoyer – pair with that frozen Pied de Cochon tourtière you’ve been saving for a special occasion.
