21 Meses

2011 Ribera Del Duero 90% Tempranillo 10% Cabernet Sauvignon

The Carmelo Rodero 21 Meses is a striking red wine from the renowned Ribera Del Duero region, showcasing a masterful blend of ninety percent Tempranillo and ten percent Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine presents a full-bodied experience with a richness that coats the palate, complemented by its pronounced acidity, offering a lively and refreshing finish. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing notes of ripe blackberries, dark cherries, and a subtle hint of plum, all enhanced by nuanced undertones of vanilla and spice from its oak aging. Tannins are notably firm yet elegant, contributing to a well-structured mouthfeel that promises great aging potential. This wine's dryness invites indulgence, making it a delightful companion to robust dishes like grilled meats or hearty stews. The 2011 vintage is a testament to the exceptional quality and craftsmanship that defines Carmelo Rodero's offerings.
