The wine

Bodegas Roda presents its new Ribera del Duero wine, with a name that follows the same pattern as its Rioja wines (Roda and Roda I). This is a dense red, full-bodied, mature, with an abundance of black fruit and some quality tannins that augur a particularly good evolution in bottle, if we are prepared to wait a few years. Naturally, the first bottle will be hard to resist, and an absolute delight; Corimbo I is a most pleasant wine, fresh, with balsamic notes, and elegant.

A cherry-red colour with a garnet rim, the nose releases ripe fruit aromas along with mineral and spicy hints. Voluminous and flavoursome on the palate, it exhibits balsamic and toasty notes, with ripe tannins.

Aged for 16 months in French and American oak barrels.

Wine critics reviewsReviews by Parker

Similar to its younger brother, the top-of-the-range 2016 Corimbo I shows superbly, more old style Ribera del Duero, with power and rusticity but also elegance and balance. It has a nose that is complex and subtle, floral and spicy. It's medium-bodied and balanced, with a chalky texture and velvety mouthfeel. It's still a little tannic, but the tannins are fine and elegant and should benefit from some more time in bottle. This has to be one of the finest vintages they have produced in Ribera del Duero.

The winery

Bodegas La Horra
