While 2017 was hot, very early and hit by a devasting frost in late April. 2015, another warm vintage, is regarded by many as a classic expression of the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He has highlighted one last trend, the move towards wines that are increasingly&nbsp; village and parcel specific. A good thing will help consumers an even wine specialist to understand the diversity of&nbsp; which the Ribera del Duero is capable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"724\" data-src=\"https:\/\/perezpascuas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/tim-atkin-1-1024x724.jpg\" alt=\"Tim Atkin\" data-id=\"6022\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/perezpascuas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/tim-atkin-1-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/perezpascuas.com\/en\/?attachment_id=6022\" class=\"wp-image-6022 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/perezpascuas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/tim-atkin-1-1024x724.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/perezpascuas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/tim-atkin-1-300x212.jpg 300w, https:\/\/perezpascuas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/tim-atkin-1-768x543.jpg 768w, https:\/\/perezpascuas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/tim-atkin-1-1536x1086.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/perezpascuas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/tim-atkin-1-2048x1448.jpg 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/724;\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/perezpascuas.com\/perez-pascuas-gran-seleccion\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">P\u00c9REZ PACUAS GRAN SELECCI\u00d3N<\/a> 2015 &#8211; 96 POINTS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The oldest vines in the Valtarre\u00f1a Vineyard, planted 88 years ago, supply the grapes for the P\u00e9rez Pascuas\u2019 top wine. Which is then made from a further selection of the best barrels. Youthful, vigorous and typically well structured, this spent 26 months in new oak French and American before bottling. Firm, tight and grippy, this is like a coilde spring, with considerable depth and fruit power, layers of tannins and a fresh, almost saline finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/perezpascuas.com\/vina-pedrosa-gran-reserva\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">VI\u00d1A PEDROSA GRAN RESERVA<\/a> 2015 &#8211; 96 POINTS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Only made in the best vintages, such as 2008, 2010 and 2015, the Gran Reserva hails&nbsp; from two parcels \u2013 Valtarre\u00f1a and El Espino- that are both over 60 years\u2019 old. Inky, dark and well structured, this is a wine that is built to age for a decade or more. Aged in new French and American oak. It is savoury, dense and just beginning&nbsp; to develop some balsamic undertones to complement the flavours of black fruits and dried herbs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/perezpascuas.com\/vina-pedrosa-reserva\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">VI\u00d1A PEDROSA RESERVA<\/a> 2017 &#8211; 93 POINTS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This comes from 50-years-old bush vines&nbsp; in Pedrosa de Duero. It is typically dense, compact and focused, with 50% French and American oak, damson and blackberry fruit and a green undertone that is a feature&nbsp; of many Ribera wines&nbsp; in 2017.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The British Master of Wine, Tim Atkin, shows us the greatest 100 wines from Ribera del Duero.
