Viñedos Sierra Cantabria Rioja Finca El Bosque 2021
Selected with intention
The 2021 Viñedos Sierra Cantabria Rioja Finca El Bosque is a profound single-vineyard expression of Tempranillo from one of Rioja's most acclaimed estates. 'El Bosque' is a small, exceptional parcel known for producing wines of immense concentration, complexity, and unique minerality. While still nascent, the 2021 vintage promises to be a benchmark for this cuvée. Expect a captivating nose of ripe black cherry, plum, liquorice, and graphite, intertwined with notes of cedar, tobacco, and a distinct forest floor character. On the palate, it is immensely powerful yet remarkably refined, with a dense core of fruit framed by incredibly fine-grained, persistent tannins. The acidity is vibrant, leading to an exceptionally long, nuanced finish.
