Bright ruby. A fragrant bouquet evokes red berries, spices and smoky minerals. Juicy, tightly wound red fruit flavors show very good intensity and are slow to unfurl. Refreshingly bitter and nervy on the finish, which lingers with good spicy persistence. Give this a little time.

The 2008 Cepa 21, also 100% Tinta Fino, spent 14 months in 500-liter French and American oak. This nicely perfumed offering displays Asian spices, lavender, incense, espresso, and blackberry aromas leading to a dense, opulent, moderately structured Ribera that possesses 2-3 years of aging potential. It is an outstanding value that will deliver pleasure for another 10-12 years. Importer: Please contact the winery to find your nearest importer. www.emiliomoro.com
