Modern Ribera del Duero created by Isaac Fernandez , Javier and the Neo team. Velvety tannins and compact -robust feeling in the mouth. A full bodied red that has incredible potential for ageing. Bravo Aranda de Duero!

Jan 9th, 2016Medium body, core leans toward opaque. Sits in the middle of purple and garnet, very clear rim. Pleasantly tannic, gentle touch of oak, and a short time in the glass takes the fruit down a notch and the pleasure up by many. This bottle will be fun to visit repeatedly over a good decade I would think. Just a challenge to make six of them last that long. Worked well with a vegan Caesar salad, olive oil braised veg, and aged parm, in that order, over a 45minute timespan.
