Hito Tempranillo Ribera del Duero 2019
Ribera del Duero, Castilla-Leon, SpainA Hito is a stone post, sometimes carved, which is used to indicate the direction or distance of paths or to mark boundaries. At Bodegas Cepa 21, Hito is made with young vines to complete the range and mark the boundary of a modern and innovative winery. The youngest vineyards have been grafted to the Tinto Fino clone. Hito is fermented in stainless steel for 12 months before ageing in French oak.Expressive, juicy, balanced and an absolute joy to drink, this is so savoury and satisfying, it should be on every wine list in the city.
