The 2022 Pago de Carraovejas blends Tempranillo with 4% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Merlot. In recent vintages, the contributions of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot have gradually decreased to emphasize Tempranillo. The wine was aged for one year in oak barrels. It displays precise fruit expression, delicate violet hint and subtle herbal touch. Juicy, structured and dense without excessive tannin tightness, this is a well-crafted Ribera offering depth and tension.
