The fruits of the vineyard and the grape harvest stand out strongly against the hint of ripeness, which is detected at the bottom.

Blackberries and damsons are clearly identificable against a background impression of aromatic plants flowering in the pine forest. A deep mineral note rounds off the aromatic profile of this magnificent wine.

Taste:

Voluminous, ample, filling the mouth with black fruits that give way to notes of aromatic plants and earthiness.

The wine finishes with a deep freshness, reminiscent of special qualities of the land during an excellent year. The 2010 harvest was magnificent at La Horra, contributing freshness and elegance against a background of impeccable maturity.

The fine, fresh tannins add character and class to the Corimbo range, which is a new interpretation of the classic Ribera del Duero.
