Ribera del Cuarzo Especial is a wine of dense-packed black fruit, liquorice, peaty earth, damp forest soil and rich, moist, sticky dark chocolate brownie. If Clásico is a pure, single note, this is a resonant chord, of high treble and deep bass, with great amplitude and vocal range, and utter harmony. Velvet texture, junipery complexity all underpinned by an umami richness. Drink this magnificent wine now and over the next 7-10 years. Exclusively from the 5-hectare Araucana Vineyard, whose calcareous soils, cool nights and strong winds result in wines with excellent concentration and marked natural acidity.
