WINE DESCRIPTION
This robust red from Cepa 21 is a powerhouse from Ribera del Duero. A blend of mostly Tempranillo, this full-bodied wine has a deep ruby color and an intense nose of dark fruit, cedar, and tobacco. On the palate, there are ripe tannins, a good dose of spice, and a long, satisfying finish. Enjoy with grilled steak, roasted vegetables, or a cheese plate.
