Red Wine Dominio Romano 2017
Availability: In stock
In their search for the most representative Spanish terroirs, the Cusiné Family decided to create the Dominio Romano winery in the heart of Ribera del Duero. The Cusinés are also the owners of Parés Baltà and Gratavinum, based, respectively, in Penedès and Priorat.
In their quest for authenticity, the red wine Dominio Romano marks a significant step forward.
This organic Spanish red wine is a single varietal Tinto Fino made from over 30-year-old vineyards. The grapes come from some of the best terroirs in Ribera del Duero.
Meticulously harvested and traditionally vinified, the red wine Dominio Romano 2017 was aged for 12 months in 2nd year French and Hungarian oak barrels.
Decant this Crianza red wine some time before drinking.
Appearance | The organic red wine Dominio Romano is deep ruby with a violet rim. |
---|---|
Nose | This varietal Tinto Fino carries aromas of mulberries and blackberries, nuanced by hints of redcurrants and subtle remembrances of balsam, menthol, spices, violets and aromatic herbs. In the background, there are some mineral and earthy suggestions. |
Palate | Fresh and characterful, with a well-defined, fat-free structure and some room for growth. Spices, blue flowers, wild berries, lavender, undergrowth and mineral. This Ribera del Duero red wine from bodega Dominio Romano has some velvety tannins, a crisp, uplifting acidity and a long finish. |
Our personal opinion | Lively and expressive, Dominio Romano 2017 goes far beyond the traditional, frequently all-too-solemn Ribera del Duero style. |
