2020 Viña de Amalio, Cillar de Silos, Ribera del Duero, Spain
Rich, dark, powerful fruit on the nose, deep berry fruits with hints of spicy oak, lifted and fine. Rich and full-bodied on the palate, masses of dark fruit, spicy oak, considerable acidity, and fine-grained tannins. It is a much bigger wine than many previous vintages and is clearly built for the long haul.
Chris Pollington, Senior Account Manager, Berry Bros. & Rudd
More power on display from the Viña de Amalio than with the Flor de Silos, but not at the expense of outstanding balance and elegance—vibrant black fruit supported by red cherry and delicate, pure acidity. From experience, this wine ages brilliantly. If you have already been collecting, the 2020 deserves a seat at the head of your vertical tasting table! This will grow to be one of the very best iterations of this terrific wine.
