This fresh and vibrant style of wine is referred to as their "Joven" or "Roble". Made from 100% Tempranillo, it is naturally fermented in stainless steel tanks, aged in French oak for only 5 months and then bottled and released for enjoyment. The firm, chalky tannins are moderated here by juicy dark berry fruit character. Rocky minerality adds a terrific counterpoint. In the mouth, the texture is full, elegant, long lasting and velvety.
Not yet professionally reviewed; 2022 vintage rated 94 points by Jeb Dunnuck: "All Tempranillo, the 2022 Ribera del Duero Tinto Joven has a deep purple hue as well as beautiful blue fruits, violets, graphite, and charcoal aromas and flavors. Along with medium to full-bodied richness, it has wonderful purity and precision, fine tannins, and a great finish. It's a stunning value."
