Bodegas Cepa 21 Ribera del Duero Tempranillo 2021 750ml Shifting gears to the famous Spanish DO of Ribera del Duero, Bodegas Cepa 21 is celebrated worldwide for crafting wines true to the Ribera del Duero terroir and its most famous grape varietal, Tempranillo, locally known as Tinta del País or Tinto Fino. Winemaker José Moro stamps his wines with knowledge that comes from generations of winemaking history in the region. Fresh and enticing red fruit aromas burst from the glass: wild strawberries and raspberries combine with earthy undertones, leading to a medium-bodied drinking experience that reveals notes of baking spices—cinnamon and cloves. Crisp, lively, and with superb “drink me now” quality, this Tempranillo is a must-buy bottle.

Expert Reviews - Vintage 2021
Mike DeSimone of the Wine Enthusiast writes 93 Points | This deep ruby-colored wine has a nose of raspberry jam, cocoa butter, and herbs de Provence. It is bright at first sip, with raspberry, red currant, toffee, milk chocolate, and aniseed flavors. Vivid acidity and luxurious tannins stroll hand in hand to a satisfying finish.

Wine Spectator 91 points Medium- to full-bodied, fresh and balanced, this has an earthy hint on the nose that underscores the palate's ripe black cherry and blackberry fruit, crushed eucalyptus and mocha flavors, with sculpted tannins firming the finish. Drink now
James Suckling 91 points Blackberries, cloves, bark and dried thyme. Full-bodied with tight and chewy tannins. Structured, with an elegant finish. Better give it a year or two to allow it to settle more. Drink from 2024.
