nuanced nose of spices

The nose gives classic Cain Vineyard aromas of bramble

Its depth and structural poise make it a natural partner for spice-kissed dishes—especially Moroccan-style lamb ribs glazed with pomegranate molasses

2017 | Dominio de Atauta Valdegatiles | Ribera del Duero Saint-Julien nuanced nose of spicesValdegatilles is the lowest of Dominio de Atauta's vineyard focused wines, although it's still located at a pretty elevated 930 metres. North facing and entirely clay based, it's often the most backward of the bodega's red, with a low pH and the concentration and acidity to age. Grippy, focused and tight, with sturdy tannins, lots of concentration and layers of damson, blueberry and wet earth. 96 Pts Tim Atkin
