Cellar/Tasting Notes
"The 2009 Celeste is 100% Tempranillo from Ribera del Duero aged for 12 months in French and American oak.

Cellar/Tasting Notes
A good quality wine with expressive aromas of red berry fruit and hints of violet that precede rich, round and vibrant flavors.

Cellar/Tasting Notes
An ethereal bouquet of black cherries, blackberry preserve, red currant and rhubarb makes way for a background of tobacco, ginger, and black pepper. Good balance of acidity, gentle tannins and a long persistent finish. Full-bodied and ageworthy.
