Protos Crianza -pakket 2020 (x4) met bekers (x4)

Reflecting the elegance that consultant Pascal Chatonnet identifies in the 2020 vintage in Ribera del Duero, this is a very respectable Crianza given the substantial volumes involved. Fresh, aromatic and well balanced, with some toasty, coffee bean oak and appealing plum and red berry fruit flavours. 2023 27.

Upfront spices and coffee from the oak with grilled meat and rich dark cherry fruit. It turns a little floral as it unfurls in the glass. Angular, chewy tannins on the palate with medium to full body and a tight, medium-long finish. Drink from 2024.

Smoky character with notes of mocha, vanilla, leather, tobacco and ripe dark cherries. Firm tannic structure on the palate. (Medalla de plata en los Decanter World Wine Awards)
