Crianza

2012 Ribera Del Duero Tempranillo

The 12 Linajes Crianza, a delightful red wine from the esteemed Ribera del Duero region, showcases the rich characteristics of Tempranillo. This 2012 vintage greets the senses with its deep ruby hue, suggesting a wine of both depth and complexity. On the palate, it offers a medium-bodied experience, supported by a lively acidity that enhances its freshness and vibrancy. The fruit intensity is prominent, highlighting notes of ripe blackberries and cherries that harmonize beautifully with subtle hints of spice and oak derived from its crianza aging process. Tannins are notably firm yet well integrated, providing structure to the wine while ensuring a smooth finish. As a dry wine, it pairs wonderfully with a range of dishes, making it a versatile choice for both casual gatherings and more formal occasions.
