as is the wine's mid-weight personality

There are lovely accents of eucalyptus and lavender to the rich fruit and spice character in this silky red

The palate is voluminous and creamy

rather zesty finish with delicate minerality that makes you want more

with a hint of peppercorn

Dominio del Aguila 'Picaro del Aguila' Vinas Viejas, Ribera del Duero, Spain 2021 Barrel Blend as is the wine's mid-weightI tasted two vintages of the entry level wine, starting with the 2021 Pcaro del guila Tinto. It's ripe and round, with round tannins, velvety and polished, approachable and hedonistic. It's nicely built and serious, very serious for an entry level. 60,387 bottles and 1,968 magnums produced. It was bottled in February 2023. 94 Pts Luis Gutierrez, Robert Parker
