Avante Ribera del Duero 2010

Beguiling notes of cut cedar, cola spice and a density of fruit that even comes forth on the nose! A remarkable red combining the high hat trill of red currants with the deep and rounded baking spices (cinnamon and clove) and black plums and boysenberry –this wines density really bears the full breadth of Ribera del Duero’s Tinto Fino whose thicker skin and sturdier composure make for a serious red.

Food Pairings

Very versatile. The better cuts of lamb. Most any meat braised or stewed. Game birds and poultry, especially duck.
