Fuentecebolla, 2021

Ribera del Duero without the heavy oak: red cherry and raspberry from one tiny plot planted in 1920, closer to fresh Burgundy than the big Spanish reds people expect.

A red from a single tiny plot of vines planted in 1920, high in Spain's Ribera del Duero, where several grape varieties grow mixed together and are picked and fermented as one. Fresh red cherries and raspberries, a perfume of black cherry, earth and spice, and a bright sour cherry finish. Supple and open rather than heavy.
