Robert Parker

(Notes from the 2011 vintage)

With an intense dark ruby color, this Ribera offers a nose of cinnamon, spices, lavender, and black cherry, with great distinction. Rich, concentrated, and full-bodied, it possesses elegance and complexity, silky tannins, with a solid structure and great depth. A lovely bottle to discover!
