96 /100

The 2014 Valbuena, mostly Tempranillo with some 5% Merlot fermented by plot, making a selection from their 210 hectares of vineyards, and then matured in a combination of barriques and larger 20,000-liter oak vats. 2014 is a spectacular vintage of Valbuena, and it reminds me of the 2010, perhaps a tad more elegant and less powerful. It's expressive and has floral notes on the nose along with wild berries, herbs and a spicy and smoky touch that's nicely integrated. It has good complexity and nuance, and the palate is medium to full-bodied and intense, with pungent flavors and great length and persistence. Truly spectacular! 184,684 bottles, 5,578 magnums and some large formats produced. It was bottled in June 2016. - Luis Gutiérrez, The Wine Advocate

94 /100

Cuddly berry aromas include a hint of raisin. The palate echoes the nose, meaning this is full and ripe, with smooth tannins supporting raisiny softness. Cassis, exotic spice notes and baked berry flavors are lush on the finish. This seems ready for near-term drinking; enjoy now through 2030. Michael Schachner

About the grape

Tempranillo

Tempranillo er rygraden i Spaniens største og mest ikoniske rødvine, især fra Rioja og Ribera del Duero. Navnet kommer fra det spanske temprano – “tidligt” – fordi druen modner tidligere end de fleste andre spanske sorter.

Druen er kendetegnet ved tykt skind, dyb farve og moderat til høj tannin, hvilket giver vine med alt fra frisk rød frugt til dybere noter af blomme, læder, chokolade og tobak – afhængigt af klima og fadlagring. I Rioja og Ribera producerer den elegante, komplekse og ofte langtidsholdbare vine, hvor Tempranillo både kan være frisk, ren og frugtdrevet eller dyb, fadpræget og struktureret.

Tempranillo har en særlig evne til at integrere fad, især amerikansk eg, der tilfører klassiske noter af vanilje, kokos og dild. Den bruges også i blends, hvor den typisk balancerer Garnachas blødhed og Mazuelo/Carignans syre og farve.

Druens stilistiske spændvidde – fra friske Joven-vine til komplekse Gran Reservas – gør Tempranillo til en af vinverdenens mest alsidige og elskede rødvinsdruer.

Serving

Server ved 15–20°C i store, universelle rødvinsglas for at fremhæve både frugt og krydrede noter.
