Vizcarra 15 Meses DO 2022 - Bodegas Vizcarra

About the wine

Juan Carlos Vizcarra Ramos, owner of the family business deeply rooted in winegrowing, is a passionate winemaker and developer: a true artist of vinification. Carbon maceration and oak barrels from all over the world should make his wines more complex and finer and give them the incomparable Ramos style. This is highly traded: Wine Spectator ranks Vizcarra among Ribera del Duero wines right after Pingus and Vega Sicilia. The vineyards are spread over various areas of land within the Burgos communities of Mambrilla de Castrejón and Roa de Duero. The Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) grape variety is clearly preferred by the chef and excellent conditions for its growth and maturation in the vineyards. This is also the reason why the wines from this winery stand out from others of this denomination every year. Ramos's daughters are called Celia and Inés, as are his wine children: Robert Parker was carried away by 95 points thanks to the elegance, opulence and strength as well as the fig leaf aroma of Celia (100% Tinto Fino, more than 50 years old). It was similarly high with Inés, where 90% Tinto Fino (50-year-old) in a bulbous bottle is allowed to marry 10% Merlot.
