Description:
'Purple/black-colored, the 2005 Alonso del Yerro has a brooding nose of earth, mineral, blackberry, and blueberry compote.
This is followed by a smooth-textured, opulent wine with tons of flavor. It has a long, pure finish and several years
of aging potential. It is an excellent value for a Ribera del Duero of this quality. Vinedos Alonso del Yerro was purchased
in 2002 and Stephane Derenoncourt was hired on as consultant. Malolactic fermentation was in new French oak followed
by aging sur-lie for 12 months with batonnage.'--Wine Advocate # 175 Feb 2008
