The wine region of Ribera del Duero
Cradle of great modern Spanish reds: Tempranillo (95% of the vineyard, here Tinto Fino) powerful, deep and elegant with notes of black cherry, blackberry, candied plum, leather, cedar and spices, firm tannins and sustained acidity thanks to altitude (720-1100 m). Classification by age: Crianza, Reserva, Gran Reserva. Harsh continental climate, clay-limestone soils. DO since 1982, 19,000 ha in Castilla y León.
The wine region of Castille-et-Léon
Cradle of great Castilian reds on high-altitude plateaus (450-1000 m) of the Duero. Tempranillo king (Tinto Fino, Tinta de Toro): powerful, structured reds with notes of black cherry, blackberry, plum, leather and spices, firm tannins and length worthy of long ageing. Stars: Ribera del Duero (Vega Sicilia, Pingus), fleshy Toro, Bierzo (fresh mineral Mencía). Lively herbaceous Verdejo whites from Rueda, cut grass and citrus.
The word of the wine: Performance
Quantity of grapes harvested per hectare. In AOC, the average yield is limited on the proposal of the appellation syndicate, validated by the Inao. The use of high-performance plant material (especially clones) and better control of vine diseases have increased yields. This is not without consequences on the quality of the wines (dilution) and on the state of the market (too much wine). We must not over-simplify: low yields are not synonymous with quality, and it is often in years with generous harvests that we find the greatest vintages (1982 and 1986 in Bordeaux, 1996 in Champagne, 1990 and 2005 in Burgundy...).
