WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
The 2019 Bodegas Barco de Piedra Ribera del Duero is a single-vineyard Tempranillo with a vinification philosophy that relies on the natural characteristics of the region rather than excessive "make up" from excess oak or jammy extraction. Black raspberry and violet aromas with rose petal, blueberry and mineral notes make this wine a delight to drink. Barco de Piedra is one of the prettiest examples of the elegance and structure of Ribera del Duero, one of the great wine regions of the world. The winery's name refers to the nickname of the Castle of Peñafiel, the "stone ship" fortress constructed in the 10th century that still stands guard over the Valladolid province.
