Coming from the Ribera del Duero, the 2021 Tinto Fino is a different beast with its juicy red and blue fruits as well as spring flowers, violets, leather, and peppery nuances. It's plush, round, supple, and straight-up sexy on palate, with a touch more flesh and opulence.

Captivatingly long-lasting, flavorful and nuanced, the 2021 Tinto Fino is 100% Tempranillo sourced from Ribera del Duero and aged in French oak barrels, one-third new. Displaying a purple hue, its aromatic profile entices with notes of violet and sour cherry, complemented by hints of wild herbs and a subtle layer of oak. On the palate, it presents a dry, rich and fairly compact profile, accentuated by an alluring chalky texture and fine-grained tannins characteristic of the Ribera. This wine's allure lies in its delicate floral character, a delightful anomaly within the typically monochromatic Tempranillo variety. (JH)
