| | Bodegas y Vinedos Valderiz is now one of the most widely-recognized wineries in the Ribera del Duero thanks to the great efforts of Tomas Esteban and now the devotion of his sons Juan and Ricardo. The family is one of the forerunners in organic agriculture in the region. The complete absence of herbicides, pesticides and fertilisers is their trademark and it shows in the beautiful vineyards and wine that represent the true soul and soil of this ancient land.

| | | | | | 2012 Bodegas Y Vinedos Valderiz Valdehermoso Crianza $132 6pack
100% Tinto del Pais (Tempranillo)
14 months aging
91 Points Wine Advocate "The 2012 Valdehermoso Crianza has a very clean, focused nose with plenty of wild berry aromas intermixed with some spices and also flowers, very harmonious with balance and subtlety. The palate is medium-bodied and it's here where you notice its youth as it's still a little tight. There are abundant tannins, but there is also good balancing acidity. Very good Crianza that should develop nicely in bottle."
