El Risco, Tinto, 2025

The Sourcing Table Verified independent store

Bright red cherry, juicy strawberry and blackberry with a tickle of spice. This wine is fresh, with just enough body and a touch of silky tannin. This will drink well after ten min utes in the fridge but will do just as well at room temperature. This wine is a poster boy for good value, a reminder of the quality to be found in Calatayud. Calatayud has a treasure chest of old vineyards, and it’s not uncommon to find 80+ year-old vines, which are able to withstand the warm and dry climate as well as its infamous strong northerly El Cierzo wind. El Risco is sourced from these old high altitude vineyards and vinified with a hands-off, low-intervention attitude. Show more
