Aalto, PS, Ribera del Duero, Castilla y Léon, Spain, 2010

The man behind this wine, Mariano García, was the winemaking director at Vega Sicilia for three decades. With fruit from old vines, it’s silky and lustrous, with a major concentration of dark, peppery fruit on both the nose and palate, and a surge of tannins on the finish. Still young, but super-fine.
