| 2005 Vinedos Alonso del Yerro Alonso del Yerro (Tempranillo) | 750 ML | $33.99 | 94 Points! Robert Parker's Wine Advocate # 175 Feb 2008 Reviewer: Jay Miller: 2005 Vinedos Alonso del Yerro Alonso del Yerro: 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. Alonso del Yerro Winemaker: Stephane Derenoncourt | http://www.vay.es/ |
