"A lovely brightness and juiciness to this with cherry, spice, and crushed stone. Some tar. Medium-bodied with chewy tannins that have a dusty undertone. Tannic and typical for Duero. Already attractive if you like tannins, but this will soften nicely with two or three more years of bottle age. Try after 2025."

"Hints of tarry smoke and tobacco offer a subtle, savory underpinning for the focused notes of black cherry and mulberry fruit on display in this lively, medium- to full-bodied red. Lightly chewy, with spice box and vanilla accents on the finish. Drink now through 2030. 10,000 cases made, 1,500 cases imported."

"A very good-value Ribera del Duero that shows vibrancy, structure and fruit. Minerals, hibiscus, fresh cherries and spiced berries. Fine-grained and full-bodied. Firm and densely packed with tannins, but nothing heavy. Drink or hold."

"The 2021 Tinta del Pa¡s Crianza Aster, sourced from Ribera del Duero, aged for 16 months in French oak barrels, 75% new. Displaying a purple-red color, the liqueur-like aromas showcase black fruit and wild herb notes over an oak layer. Dry and fairly structured on the palate, it is juicy with fine-grained reactive tannins, creating a compact red."
