Barrueco
The Pagos de Anguix estate, located at over 850 metres in the very heart of Ribera del Duero, is the birthplace of this magnificent wine made exclusively from the Tempranillo variety. Patience and wisdom have resulted in an elegant varietal that expresses the authentic richness of this exceptional terroir.
The intense, brilliant, red colour of the wine still displays characteristically youthful hints of purple. A very complex and intense nose on first impression. Distinct notes of toasted almonds and hazelnuts over deep undertones of red fruit. Notes reminiscent of vanilla, coffee, and cocoa appear as the wine gradually opens up, along with echoes of cedar, tobacco leaves, and more cocoa. The tannins impart a sense of great structure and depth, complemented by very refreshing, good, mineral acidity. The velvety texture and wonderful viscosity envelop the palate in delightful sensations. Long on the finish, with echoes of fruit and distinct spicy notes.
A magnificent wine that will improve with bottle ageing over the next 10 years.
Harvested, elaborated and bottled on the property.
