The Wine

Country of origin:

Spain

Region:

Ribera del Duero

Ribera del Duero is well known for its big punchy wines with heavy oak influence. Yet the winemaker, German Blanco, strived to change this narrative at Milú. His self-acclaimed 'Micro Winery' is a truly family affair, working together to produce a fresh and fruity style of Tempranillo breaking the stereotype of a classic Ribera del Duero while revealing the unique expression of wine from this ever-improving region. This wine does not disappoint! By sticking to his ethos of minimal intervention, this excellent vintage is brimming with ripe dark fruits, liquorice, and peppery spice. It is the ideal partner to bring to any dinner party.

The Winemaker

German Robles Blanco
Winemaker:

Germán Robles Blanco

Ribera del Duero is an area known for big reputations, big wines, and big oak influence... not really our thing. So, we were pleased to come across winemaker Germán Blanco, a young winemaker who is championing a fresher style of Tinto del Pais - the local name for Tempranillo. He calls his project a 'Micro-winery' and it is a true family business, based around the village of La Aguilera in the Burgos province. He works with very old vineyards, many of which are planted at over 900 metres above sea level. Germán makes his elegant, fruit-forward wines using foot-treading, wild yeast fermentation and minimal handling. All his wines share a delicious rusticity, purity of fruit, and incredible freshness..

"On the palate, there is good balance, with semi-sweet tannins and medium alcohol. In short, delicious wines with a good freshness and lots of fruit." - Germán Robles Blanco, Winemaker.

A lot of sediment for a 2021 wine and quite strong alcohol taste
