When people ask me for a Ribera del Duero that tastes like a proper Ribera without stretching the budget, this is one I point to straight away. It’s from the Figuero family in La Horra, the same people who make our Viñas Viejas, and it’s the classic Crianza of the range: generous, well made and really easy to love.
It’s 100% Tempranillo, mostly from vines between 20 and 40 years old with a share of older 50-year-old vines adding depth. The grapes are hand-picked into small crates, given a short cold soak and fermented with their own wild yeasts. Then it’s twelve months in barrel, mostly American oak with some French, before resting in bottle so it arrives nicely rounded.
In the glass it’s a deep cherry red. On the nose you get ripe blackberry and plum, a touch of vanilla and toast from the oak, and a little black pepper. The palate is smooth and fruity with soft, polished tannins and a warm, spicy finish. Ready to enjoy now, but it will happily keep a few more years.
Perfect with grilled lamb chops, chuletón, a hearty cocido or simply a plate of jamón and cured cheese.
