2006 is a still quite young Valbuena 5° with a very deep, sparkling ruby red color and a classic and complex scent of dried fruits, ripe blackberries, flowers, also slightly balsamic notes of incense and Asian spices, alongside delicate wood and roasted aromas (cedar wood , cigar box, pencil lead) and fine mineral notes that give the bouquet an elegant straightness with a touch of severity. Immediately opulent, intense and full-bodied on the palate, then softer, more delicate, yet clearly structured and long, a perfect representative of the typical straightforwardness of the Ribera del Duero! Please give Valbuena 5° a little time to develop even more gently and harmoniously.
