Picaro Del Aguila 2019
Juicy aromas of blackberry, blueberry and dark cherry, vanilla and sweet spice waft temptingly out of the glass. Your first sip won't disappoint, it's smooth and silky with seriously good balance and fine chalky tannins.
The grapes come from north-facing vineyards, the cooler exposition helps temper the hot climate, giving a fresh and vibrant style. This superb modern Ribera del Duero from winemaker to watch Jorge Monzón would be spot on with lamb.
The Tinto counterpart to the Clarete is also a co-fermented blend of primarily Tempranillo with Albillo, Garnacha and Bobal which sees a maceration resulting in a beautiful color. Despite its months in French oak it is bright, vibrant and aromatic. Whole cluster natural yeast fermentation in concrete tanks, trodden with the feet. 20 months in French oak barrels.
