Tempranillo Blend, Tempranillo more

3/2/2024 - Russocaster Likes this wine: 91 points

Muy buen Ribera, con suficiente estructura y complejidad para acompañar cualquier ocasión. Requiere de una buena oxigenación tras la cual madera y fruta se integran correctamente. Fruta roja compotada, grosella, frambuesa, galletas de miel (graham crackers), te. Delicioso.

End of the drinking window, but perfectly integrated and all edges resolved. A treat to drink and don't forget to decant this.

2014 Cillar de Silos Ribera del Duero Crianza

Tempranillo Blend, Tempranillo more

2/12/2018 - Mossrose wrote: 92 points

Almost opaque, near lush. Enters the mouth smooth without being astringent, firmly tannic, or grippy. For a wine so young, impressively good straight out of the opened bottle. Strong spike of acidity on the swallow, good concentration, complex, and delicious. Overall, Cillar de Silos is a strong candidate for making the best Crianza level wine in Spain.

Cillar de Silos makes multiple levels of Tempranillo that get greater in quality and more expensive as you move up the ladder. But their introductory wine, here bought at $15 a bottle, is no slouch and even improves for at least a decade The 2001 Crianza was utterly charming, rich, delicious, and enjoyable even on release. This decently concentrated 2007 started more tart and firmly structured , and took a decade to get really good. Excellent red cherry fruit with both the acidity and tannin nicely rounded, and no sign at all of any decline with age.

This introductory Ribera del Duero of Cillar de Silos is one of my nominations for the highest quality among value Tempranillo wines. This winery makes multiple tiers of wines that are not only more expensive but even better. At 10 years old, this wine has dramatically leaped in quality by superbly aging, becoming lushly softer, more delicious, and integrated, yet still well structured by background acidity and tannin. Overall, getting close to rivaling the great Crianza Cillar de Silos made from the 2001 vintage.

Poured right out of the bottle, the wine initially suffered from a sour acidity and a lean streak of astringent tannin. But the second day open the wine was reborn, with a darker color, deeper black cherry fruit, much calmer acidity, and rounder mouth feel, while retaining a firmly drying finish. Excellent with a wide range of foods. Thoughly enjoyable on day 5 of being opened. At $15 a bottle, a fine benchmark for Ribera del Duero wines to have to beat in order to justify any higher price.

Good showing, with everything you'd hope from a small production Duero. Graphite and black fruit cosseted in softening tannic structure. Definitely open for business, but good for at least another five years.

92 Excelente vino, como siempre. Aún jovencísimo, pero ya se deja beber perfectamente. Tinta china, fruta madura, muy fragante. En boca es muy frutal, con acidez, fruta roja. Tiene un final muy equilibrado, sabroso, nada pesado. Un vino excelente, siempre muy elegante. Un grande en la zona.

The wine looks garnet colored the legs are medium. It smells like prune and red currant. It tastes like butter, red currant, blackberry and a touch of black pepper. The body is medium and the wine has angular texture. The wine finishes medium with medium acidity.

We left this wine sit for about 20 mins in our glass and it opened up. It was a good wine that we enjoyed.

Tasted this semi blind and absolutely loved it. Drinking beautifully already, despite its youth. Dark ruby colour to the rim with a dark chocolate, plum, blackberry and spice on the nose. The palate is broad, rich and soft with plum and black fruit, mint, menthol, spice and pepper. Tannins melded and great balance.

First of a case and hoped for a little more. On opening this was shy and retiring, coquettishly showing glimpses of Ribera black fruit. Tannins have almost fully resolved and everything seem ready to go, but not too much happened in the glass. Enjoyable, but was quite excited after this had been squirrelled away for so long. The following day this was all stewed fruit and almost port-like, which wasn't the Duero/Douro direction I'd hoped for. No hurry, and hope next bottle in the case offers more.

This bottle suggests that this is at its peak, which is a shame given this was the last of the case. Textbook Ribera, with good acidity and dark fruit fading to graphite finish. Tannins almost fully resolved. Likely plateau for next year or two but no reason to hold off.

Spanish fun day two (N&J's place, Canberra): From Coravin. Slightly meaty, dirty, with a touch of strawberry compote and a smidge of sulphur and clove. Juicy, slight savoury strawberry compote, a little textured burr offers a silky rasp. Medium plus length. Simple. Okay.

Spanish fun day one (N&J's place, Canberra): From Coravin. Vanilla, sweet spice, especially clove and nutmeg, toasted coconut over muted red berry fruit. In the mouth it's much of a muchness to the nose; oak water with a splash of red berry fruit, an initial lick of quite sharp acidity completes the picture. Not for me.

Spanish fun day one (N&J's place, Canberra): From Coravin. Smells candied (strawberry lozenges) and vanilla, touch of almost stewed rhubarb, a little minty underpin, cream. Strawberry boiled sweets on the palate, cream, a little vanilla, that slight rhubarb underpin, grape tannins persist, simple, nice.

Spanish fun day one (N&J's place, Canberra): From Coravin. Strawberry, vanilla, cream, a little sweet spice, touch of cream soda, with time earthy minerality, tobacco leaf. Fruit a little backed on the palate, tight chewy woody, grainy tannins rasp the tongue, cream, vanilla sweet spice in support. Woof. It's a bit heavy.

Drinking very nicely. Well balanced with a good mix of primary, secondary and tertiary elements. Unlikely to improve much beyond this, but no signs of imminent decline either. A very accessible and tasty (if a little one-dimensional) window into aged Tempranillo. Drink now - 2030

Tett mørk kjerne, rubin rand, begynnende modning.

Mørke skogsbær og plomme. Vanilje, fat. Bløt.

Frisk syre og merkbar struktur med noe avslipning. Fin og bløt, veldig fin til filet. Såvidt snev av modning, men har et langt liv foran seg. Lang.

Solid og god. Fortjener 90, men ikke oppe i 95/97 som nevnes her og der.

Wines of the Camino de Santiago; 9/13/2022-10/19/2022 (Northern Spain): This is a clear step up from the regular Silos. There is more depth and a bit of oomph behind it with black cherries, raspberries, toast, smoke, licorice, spice notes, crushed rocks, coffee grounds, and violets. The Full bodied feel shows good depth and balance with tart, medium+ acidity and chewy, medium+ tannins. This is very good and shows a lot more. This could really use a few years to round into form, but it feels like a proper RDD that shows off tasty black fruits with a bit of tension from the structure.

Wines of the Camino de Santiago; 9/13/2022-10/19/2022 (Northern Spain): The nose is fresh and balanced with a brightness to it along with red fruits, Cherries, red berries, spice notes, herbs, roses, and some cherry compote. The Medium/full bodied feel is balanced with lively, medium+ acidity and medium tannins. This is a fun and balanced RDD, but it lacks depth on the nose and palate. It’s not meant to be serious and is a nice and easy Tempranillo.

In a very good place drinking wise. Would recommend 20 minutes In a decanter before drinking. Fine resolved tannins. A slight touch of alcohol in the finish, but the stewed and dried fruit combination is very impressive. Silky and long in the finish.

Deep black-garnet
Vibrant aromas of ripe dark fruits displaying damson, black raspberry, blackberry alongside baking spices, especially cinnamon and toasty oak.
Full-bodied with a fine-grained texture, round with plenty of sweet spices, chocolate and rather splintery almost workshop wood. A generous gusty wine that relies on ellagic tannins over fruit making the oak a little too invasive. Yet underneath, there is an appeal with sweet fruits and the finish is relatively long with powdery tannins. I want to like it more than perhaps I do.
