Special One
DO Ribera del Duero
Aprofitant l’excel·lent collita 2021, en el mateix celler dels germans Bienvenido i Ignacio Gallego Zapatero d’Anguix (Burgos), hem fet unes millores sobre el projecte del 2019 per encara millorar-lo i aconseguir un vi més fruitós, més alegre i on fruita i fusta juguen un paper ben coordinat i sense arestes, per no amagar el vertader terroir de Ribera de Duero. Creiem que és una delícia de producte pels amics clients que gaudeixen amb els vins d’aquesta DO.
