Cillar de Silos 'Estate' Tinto Fino 2019

World Wine – The Cillar de Silos Crianza is produced with the fruit from different old-vine plots (40 to 50 years of age) on sand and lime soils, feels quite classical, with aromas of ripe black fruit, spicy oak and an herbal side that adds freshness. The palate is remarkably fresh for the vintage, with polished, fine tannins and enough acidity. A very good crianza.

Robert Parker/Wine Advocate – I was really looking forward to the 2016 Pingus in bottle, as the sample I tasted last time promised to be one of the best (if not the best!) Pinguses to date. Few (if any) vintages of Pingus have shown such integration of the oak, especially considering the wine is so extremely young. It has precision and symmetry, elegance and austerity à la Audrey Hepburn. This 2016 is like an updated version of the 1996, produced with a lot more knowledge that helped them find this purity, freshness and elegance. Peter Sisseck described it as seamless, and I could only agree. He also said that this is probably his ideal of what the wine from Ribera del Duero should be. The wine was kept in barrel for an extra couple of months and was finally bottled in August 2018; there were 8,100 bottles produced. It delivered all the sample promised, and perhaps a bit more...

Robert Parker/Wine Advocate – "The 2019 Matallana is a blend of 85% Tinto Fino with some 15% other varieties such as Valenciano (Bobal), Navarro (Garnacha) and even white Albillo. 2019 was a very classical vintage with power, concentration and plenty of tannin, and the wine should develop and benefit from extended time in bottle. The wine feels very young and primary, with integrated spices from the élevage in oak, a medium to full-bodied palate, powerful and concentrated but very balanced. As I said in previous years, it's a Ribera like the ones from yesteryear! 18,676 produced with the selected grapes from 21 hectares of vineyards. It was bottled in July 2021."

Ribera Del Duero, nestled in the northern plateau of Spain, is renowned for its unique microclimate and varied soils, lending to the distinct character of its wines. This region's history traces back centuries, where ancient winemaking traditions have been passed down through generations. Here, the Tempranillo grape reigns supreme, producing wines that are rich, full-bodied, and teeming with complex flavors. The region's altitude, with vineyards reaching heights of 800 meters above sea level, contributes to the sharp temperature differences between day and night. This diurnal variation aids in the perfect ripening of the grapes, imbuing them with a perfect balance of acidity, tannin, and fruitiness. The Duero River winds its way through the region, not only giving it its name but also influencing the terroir and serving as a life source for the vineyards. Ribera Del Duero, with its rich history and unique geographical attributes, truly stands out as a wine region par excellence.
Ribera Del Duero is a captivating wine region located in the northern plateau of Spain, spreading across four provinces: Burgos, Segovia, Soria, and Valladolid. It's a significant part of the historic Castilla y León region. The region is bisected by the Duero River, from which it derives its evocative name. The flowing river not only nourishes the vines but also shapes the topography, climate, and identity of the region, making it an integral part of Spain's viticultural tapestry.
