One of the most reliable Crianzas and an incredible local successes in Spain, the 2014 Crianza is a subtle, harmonic and elegant blend of Tempranillo (Tinto Fino) with some 12% Cabernet Sauvignon and 9% Merlot, fermented in stainless steel and oak vats and matured in French and American oak barrels for one year before it was bottled. With 15% alcohol it's not a shy wine, but it's nicely balanced, the oak is present but integrated with the fruit, and the palate is full-bodied and round, with lush tannins and a very tasty finish. 600,000 bottles produced.

Smoky, sanguine and loamy earth notes give this big red a savory character, featuring a rich core of plum and blackberry flavors, with licorice and floral details emerging on the finish. Dense but balanced, presenting a long, smoky finish. Tinto Fino, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Drink now through 2028. 125 cases imported.??–TM??Region: Spain / Ribera del Duero Select to Add
