Notas de Parker sobre la añada 2009: The 2009 Alonso del Yerro, tasted from a barrel sample, is purple/black in color with outstanding density and richness. It is a promising effort from what looks to be a great Tempranillo vintage in Ribera del Duero.

The current owners purchased this estate in 2002 and hired Stephane Derenoncourt of Bordeaux renown as consultant. The Alonso del Yerro cuvee, made from 100% Tempranillo, typically goes through ML in barrel followed by 12 months sur lie with batonnage in new French oak. The Maria cuvee (also 100% Tempranillo) is fermented in new oak vats, goes through a longer maceration than the Alonso bottling, and is aged in new French oak for 18 months sur lie with batonnage. As a side note, Vinedos Alonso del Yerro has started a new project in neighboring Toro called Paydos. I tasted barrel samples of the first two vintages, 2008 and 2009. They were both exceptional; the 2009, in particular, due to the virtually perfect vintage conditions in Toro.

Notas de Cata de Peñín: Color cereza, brote granate. Aroma especiado, tostado, fruta sobremadura, mineral, chocolate. Boca potente, sabroso, tostado, taninos maduros.

Otras puntuaciones: 17.5/20 MV sobre la añada 2010

"Magnífica nariz, fina y compleja: arándanos, canela, clavo. Frutal, explosivo pero sin dejar de ser armónico y sedoso. Extremadamente frutal, con mucha caliza en boca. Sin ninguna pesadez."
