Valenciso Laderas de Cabama Rioja Tempranillo 2021

''It’s highly complex, with great depth of ripe, dark fruit and cedary oak on the nose. The rich, round palate continues this, adding hints of chocolate and spices. It has balance and line through the mouth. A well composed wine with fragrant, concentrated fruit and lively, integrated acidity. The savouriness, and the soft, bright fruit is a delicious combination. Intriguing layers and delicious savoury complexity. Vibrancy, intensity, purity and balance.” 93 Points, Gourmet Traveller Wine Guide (Previous Vintage Review)

''This is a fragrant and aromatic wine. The red and black cherry fruit deliver a smooth and velvety mouthfeel. Lovely freshness, purity and finesse. Chalky tannins lead to a medium to long finish. This wine is utterly delicious right now. Great value for money. Not easy to find, but I highly recommend it.'' 94 Points, Thomas Girgensohn, Australian Wine Reviews and Beyond (Previous Vintage Review)

The outstanding Laderas de Cabama is crafted from a single vineyard of 35-year-old Tempranillo vines. This vineyard sits on the classic clay/limestone profile of Ollauri (Rioja Alta). Everything Luis Valentín and Carmen Enciso touch has quality written all over it. This fresh and vibrant Rioja is no exception. Expect a perfumed, juicy and spicy wine of great finesse. It has fresh blackberry and red cherry fruit along with some tobacco and spice.
