This deep garnet-colored wine has aromas of slightly brambly fruits of the wood, mocha and cedar block. It is brighter on the palate than expected, offering opening notes of pomegranate and raspberry that are joined by flavors of black cherry, bittersweet chocolate, lavender and orange zest. Vigorous tannins come on strong and drift off into a chocolate-infused finish.
There are plenty of notable native Spanish grapes which have made a big impression on the wine world at large, but none are as renowned or as widely loved as the Tempranillo varietal. This black skinned grape has been used for wine making for centuries, with several ancient civilizations noticing the fact that it is highly versatile and holds some delicious flavors and aromas, perfect for those looking for a powerful yet elegant grape for their wines. Tempranillo often causes winemakers some trouble, however, as it is highly susceptible to many diseases. Despite this, plenty continue to persevere with this varietal, as it is perfect for producing delicious and complex single variety and blended wines, packed full of classic Spanish flavors and plenty of aromatic and intense surprises.
Country
Spain
Ever since the Phoenicians and Romans brought their knowledge of vine cultivation to Spanish soils, the country's culture has grown alongside wine production, with wine being a vital part of Spanish identity and Spanish traditions. Each region of Spain has a wine quite distinct from the others, and it is produced by smallholders and families as much as it is by large companies and established wineries. From the relatively mild and lush regions of La Rioja to the arid plateaus that surround Madrid, grapes are grown in abundance for the now booming Spanish wine industry, and new laws and regulations have recently been put in place to keep the country's standards high. By combining traditional practices with modern technology, Spanish wineries are continuing to produce distinctive wines of great character, flavor and aroma, with the focus shifting in recent decades to quality over quantity.
Region
Castilla Y Leon
The ancient, arid and beautiful region of Castilla y Leon is the largest in Spain, and amongst the largest single 'regions' in any country of Europe. It has been famed throughout the centuries for its architecture, its people, its art and literature, and not least for its characterful and flavorful wines, which capture the beating heart and passion of Spain and Spanish culture. Castilla y Leon is essentially a vast plateau, and is extremely dry, with a poor soil structure which one might think would make viticulture difficult, if not impossible. However, Castilla y Leon has plenty of native grape varietals which are able to stretch their roots deep underground, to tap into the moisture and minerals which can be found there.

A precise, polished Ribera del Duero that delivers not only structure but also refinement with delineated aromas and flavors. Dusty cocoa powder and dark spices are knit to the red and blue berries. Firm and juicy on the palate with polished tannins and a juicy, long finish. Already approachable now, but will hold very well in the next eight years. Real deal.

Wine Advocate
The 2019 El Anejón includes 3% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Merlot to complement the Tinto Fino/Tempranillo from their Anejón terraces. It comes from a warm, dry and ripe year when the wine achieved 15.5% alcohol. It has notes of ripe dark berries, spices and a smoky touch from quality barrels, new 600-liter barrels where the wine matured for a period of 12 months. It's medium to full-bodied, with abundant, slightly grainy tannins and a dry, chalky finish. 16,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in May 2021. The wine is aging slowly and feels quite balanced.

Wine Spectator
Flavors of black cherry coulis, herbed olive and black raspberry ganache are married to plush tannins in this thick, creamy red. A fragrant version, offering anise, bay leaf and tar-tinged smoke notes, with a tang of balsamic acidity focusing this through the chewy finish. Tinto Fino, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best after 2026. 1,250 cases made, 150 cases imported.
