// Organic 100% Tinto Fino (Tempranillo), averaging 30-years-old from three vineyards
"Los Colmenares is from high-altitude vineyard planted with old-vine Tempranillo on limestone-rich soils. Low yields and careful hand harvesting deliver concentration without heaviness, while measured ageing in French oak adds depth and polish rather than overt oak influence. The wine opens with dark cherry and blackberry layered with graphite, dried herbs and subtle spice, before a powerful yet controlled palate of fine tannins, fresh acidity and mineral drive. Serious, structured and built for the long term, Los Colmenares captures the intensity of Ribera del Duero with clarity and restraint." - Alimentaria, Importer
"Lots of racy red plums, cherries and berries with a floral touch on the nose. Beautiful interplay between chalky tannins and fruit. Very firm and structured but poised and precise. This is tempranillo from three vineyards, El Olivo, Cuesta Rubial and Carraquintana. Drink now or hold." - 94 Points, James Suckling
