Dominio del Aguila Reserva 2016

Tempranillo, Albillo, Garnacha, Bobal, 31 Monate in Barriques aus neuer französischer Eiche ausgebaut.

Alkoholgehalt: 14,0 Vol.%

Violettschwarzes Rot. In der Nase Kirschen, Brombeeren, Heidelbeeren, Grafitt, Vanille, Kräuter. Dichter, konzentrierter Auftritt am Gaumen. Feine Frucht, filigrane Mineralik, balsamische Noten, würzige Anklänge. Das Tannin ist noch jugendlich, aber schon ansprechend. Ausdauernd, athletisches Finale. Trinkreife 2020-2040. Unbedingt mehrere Stunden dekantieren.

97 Punkte Robert Parker Wine Advocate #246 Dez 2019: "Quite different from the 2015 was the 2016 Reserva, a red from a cooler year with good yields, so they were able to increase production of this wine over twofold and increase the quality! It took some seven months to complete fermentation, and the élevage in barrel lasted some 29 months. It has an incredible nose, violets and something musky, intriguing, complex and nuanced, mysterious and difficult to define, with some notes reminiscent of soy sauce. The palate is seamless and with terrific balance, a silky texture and very fine but chalky tannins. This is an amazing Ribera del Duero. 18,834 bottles and 519 magnums produced. It was bottled in April 2019."
