RIBERA DEL DUERO
In the heart of Castilla y León, Ribera del Duero sits atop the elevated plateau of northern Spain. Stepping back in time, this area of the country is speckled with castles and Roman aqueducts. It has a desert-like continental climate, experiencing massive swings between temperatures both daily and seasonally. Part of the Tempranillo-belt, these wines are bold and muscular, with richly expressive fruit.
