Áster Crianza 2021

A very good-value Ribera del Duero that shows vibrancy, structure and fruit. Minerals, hibiscus, fresh cherries and spiced berries. Fine-grained and full-bodied. Firm and densely packed with tannins, but nothing heavy. Drink or hold. Score – 93. (Zekun Shuai, jamessuckling.com, Aug. 5, 2024)
