Valdubón Reserva Ribera Del Duero 2019 14,5% Vol. 0,75l
£19.55
The Bodegas Valdubón winery, founded in 1997, is located in Milagros, near Aranda de Duero, in the heart of the Ribera del Duero. The main grape varieties Tinta del País (Tempranillo), Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon thrive on 155 hectares, producing powerful wines with a strong character. Sustainability plays a central role: a water treatment plant protects the Riaza and Duero river basins, 500 solar panels provide energy and collected rainwater is used for irrigation. In 2023, Bodegas Valdubón was recognised as the most award-winning winery in the Ferrer Wines Group – proof of the consistent quality and excellence of the wines.
Valdubón Reserva is an expressive and elegant red wine from one of Spain’s most prestigious wine regions – the Ribera del Duero. It is made from 100% Tempranillo grapes, which ripen under optimal climatic conditions and give the wine its intense flavour and structure. After careful vinification, this Reserva matures for at least 24 months in oak barrels and then undergoes bottle ageing to further refine its flavours. Once it has matured, it is bottled and sealed with a natural cork. It has an excellent ageing potential of at least 15 months, allowing it to gain in complexity and elegance over time.
This vintage reflects the specialities of the terroir and stands for powerful structure and long-lasting enjoyment.
Tasting NoteDark cherry red in the glass. On the nose, an intense bouquet of ripe black fruits such as blackberries, cherries and plums, accompanied by subtle notes of vanilla, cocoa and toasted oak. Powerful yet supple on the palate with a dense structure, ripe tannins and fine acidity. Notes of dark chocolate, tobacco, spices and balsamic hints round off the flavour experience. Long and persistent on the finish.
Drinking temperature: 16-18 °C
An ideal accompaniment to strong meat dishes such as grilled fillet of beef, rack of lamb or braised game. It also harmonises perfectly with mature Manchego cheese or savoury tapas such as chorizo and Iberico ham.
