'The Magnificent 7' has become too small for us to review the excellence of the DO Ribera del Duero. In this fourth edition of the Barcelona Wine Week I have selected 10 wonderful riverside reds for an unprecedented and unrepeatable tasting. As the long-awaited winemaker Paco Rodero (Pago de los Capellanes) explained to me in 2022, Ribera del Duero “is a designation of origin with centuries of history behind it, carved by our ancestors, taking care of their land and subsequently raising our wines among the most relevant in the world.”

Will tasted: Dominio de Atauta Llanos del Almendro 2017, Perez Pascuas Gran Selección de Viña Pedrosa 2015, Tomás Postigo Vinificación Integral 2018, Pago de Carraovejas el Añejón 2019, Francisco Barona Finca las Dueñas 2019, Aalto XX anniversary, Dominio de Cacología Cuvée S 2020 , Pago de los Capellanes Parcela El Picón 2019, Pesus de Viña Sastre 2016 and Vega Sicilia Único Reserva Especial CVC 2010, 2011 and 2012.
