Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: Produced with Tempranillo grapes from organically farmed, non-irrigated vines, the 2015 Corimbo, their second wine from Ribera del Duero, fermented with indigenous yeasts and matured in oak barrels, 80% French oak and the rest American, for 14 months. It’s a dark, ripe, modern and concentrated Tempranillo that is easy to identify as Ribera del Duero, with notes of black fruit and sweet spices, something balsamic, faintly medicinal and with diesel-like minerality, and a medium to full-bodied palate with ripe flavors that reflect the character of the year. It has round and polished tannins and moderate acidity. 117,250 bottles produced. It was bottled in September 2017.

• James Suckling: An entrancing nose of fresh violets, licorice, peppercorn, oyster shell, cloves, citrus and lavender. A very sleek palate follows with edgy, grainy tannins and so much zesty acidity and drive.

Producer Information

Bodegas Roda is a leading winery in the Rioja Alta region of Spain, known for its densely fruity wines made predominantly from Tempranillo. The winery, founded in 1987, is located on the edge of the railway station district of Haro next to La Rioja Alta. The vineyards are spread over around 20 old vine plots, mostly in Rioja Alta, and are planted to bush vines. Harvests are all carried out by hand into 18-kilo (40-pound) crates for gentle transportation. All Roda wines are fermented in French oak vats. They are only matured in French oak barrels – traditionally American oak is most common in the region. The old 19th century cellars are dried out by hot and cold water absorption. This is part of a clever renewable water system that both heats and cools the facilities.
