Description
Valbuena captures the essence of Tempranillo in Ribera del Duero, a splash of Merlot rounding and fattening the already extremely weighty palate. The Valbuena 5 designation referring to the 5 year elevage in French and American oak and in bottle prior to release. A remarkably consistent wine from vintage to vintage, the 6 vintages in the Collectors Limited Edition are all very good to great, with the 2010 perhaps the finest wine the estate has ever made under this label (though we personally preferred the classically styled 2009 when we tasted together in January 2017 with Antonio Menendez). Presented in a stylish grey wooden box, not only do you get impeccable provenance direct from the chateau, they even offer a significant discount for buying in this format. All the wines can be enjoyed in their youth since they’re so lovely and opulent, but each has at least 20 years cellar life from vintage. Only made in very limited quantities, with fewer than 25 total for New Zealand, this Collectors Limited Edition pack offers a comprehensive overview of one of the great wines of the world, for a refreshingly accessible price.
