Description
Ribera del Cuarzo Parcela Única fuses the smoothness and multifaceted complexity of Especial with the pinpoint precision of Clásico. It is a basket of just-picked black cherries and foraged black truffles, a handful of pink peppercorns and crushed juniper, weather-washed Welsh wet slate, liquorice bootlace and an inhalation of the year's first vernal violet. It is a perfectly-proportioned, impeccably-tailored sartorial suit of finely-woven tannins; a wine of polish yet minute detail that elicits a haunting sense of place. Drink now, and be impressed, although its balance and intensity should allow for a decade's development in the bottle. Made from the finest grapes, carefully selected from the prime plot, in the southwest quadrant of the Araucana Vineyard. The elevated limestone composition of the soil and relentless winds impart heightened potency and finesse.
