Varietal

Tempranillo

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.

Appellation

Ribera Del Duero

JS 94pts

James Suckling

A very consistent Ribera del Duero that shows the fresh side of the vintage, with flowers, minerals and deep blue fruit. No evolution at all, with finely etched tannins that are firm, minerally and attractive. Drink from 2027.

DC 94pts

Decanter

The child of an irregular vintage, with both cold and hot spells, this has an elegant, mineral tannic framework that lends it verticality and poise throughout. The crunchy red and blue fruit is cloaked in salty liquorice, cardamom, nutmeg and clove, with sage and tarragon playing in the background. Wet stone freshness and a subtle smokey layer of tobacco add both depth and lift. Great focus and pleasantly chalky texture.

Winery Notes

Javier AUSAS was the wine maker and technical Director of VEGA SICILIA for 23 years (1992 – 2015). He then started his own boutique wine company. He purchased a good percentage of his Tempranillo grape from the very well-known ALION vineyard, his friend for over 30 years.
