Extremes of weather and terroir are essential to the crafting of great wines. The more stress on the vine, the better the wine. With vineyards located at over 900m on low fertile soil and in an area of extreme weather ranges (Up to 50°C difference between Summer and Winter), the vineyards of Bodegas Peñafiel in Ribera Del Duero already have a leg-up on their peers in crafting terroir-driven wines of quality. Not all Spanish Reserva’s are the same. In comparison to Rioja, this Reserva has just as much quality but is more densely layered and robust. Decant 1.5 hours beforehand.
