Finca Helena 2015

Blackberry fruit, showing the optimal ripeness of Tempranillo grapes, without any excess. Still marked on the nose by lots of new oak, but showing remarkable fruit intensity. It is tightly built, very serious, showing its origins in La Aguilera, in the central part of Ribera. The style is less classic, built upon intense fruit, with a relatively shorter ageing period, and deftly crafted. A benchmark for tinta fina lovers, to be drunk any time during the next five years. - Pedro Ballesteros Torres MW.

Good ripe fruit with plum and barley character. Medium body. Soft and silky tannins and a juicy finish. Drink now.
