"The 2021 Pago de Carraovejas is a blend of Tempranillo with 5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Merlot from Ribera del Duero. Followers of this wine will note its gradual shift toward a less ripe profile, aided by the fresh 2021 vintage. Garnet with purple hues, it displays aromas of black and red fruits, subtle oak, dairy and a touch of orange peel. The palate is indulgent, creamy and juicy, with active tannins and a flavorful, lightly grippy texture. It reflects a Ribera del Duero style with a clear New World nod. - Joaquín HIDALGO"
