Country: Spain
Region and Appellation: Ribera del Duero
Product Description
Finca Villacreces Specimen N2 represents a bold and innovative multi-vintage blend from Ribera del Duero, created from Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes harvested in the years 2017, 2018, and 2019. This distinctive wine displays a deep ruby-red color with purple reflections, providing a complex and layered tasting experience.
On the nose, one can anticipate intense aromas of dark sour cherries, blackcurrant, licorice, vanilla, and subtle balsamic spices, enhanced by earthy undertones of herbs and minerals. The palate is rich and concentrated, featuring juicy black fruit, polished tannins, and well-integrated oak, culminating in a long, elegant finish.
Critics commend its balance of freshness and depth, with some highlighting its compatibility with grilled meats such as picanha or slow-cooked dishes. While it is powerful at present, it also possesses aging potential, with some reviewers suggesting cellaring for an additional 3–5 years.
A contemporary interpretation of Ribera del Duero’s tradition, Specimen N2 offers remarkable complexity and structure, making it an exceptional choice for both collectors and enthusiasts. It is best enjoyed after decanting to fully appreciate its evolving layers.
