Preludio de Sei Solo 2022

Sei Solo, Ribera del Duero, Spain

Preludio de Sei Solo reflects a more primary and energetic expression of the estate, drawn from younger Tempranillo vineyards that naturally emphasize red-toned fruit, freshness, and vibrant acidity. Stylistically, the wine sits at the intersection of classic Ribera del Duero structure and a contemporary search for precision, where firm Tempranillo tannins are balanced by the lift and tension derived from earlier picking, yielding a dynamic, finely structured wine.
