Ribera del Cuarzo Ribera del Cuarzo Especial 2023 75cl

From Ribera del Cuarzo, the 2023 Especial is a red wine drawn exclusively from the 5-hectare Araucana Vineyard. Its calcareous soils, cool nights and strong winds give the wine excellent concentration and marked natural acidity, shaping a style with depth and structure.

The character is dense and layered, with black fruit, liquorice, peaty earth and damp forest soil, followed by rich dark chocolate brownie notes. A velvet texture and junipery complexity sit over an umami richness, making this a compelling bottle to enjoy now or cellar over the next 7 to 10 years.
