Matarromera is one of the most well loved producers from Ribera del Duero in Spain. The winery is thoroughly modern but the wines maintain a distinctly traditional flavor. The 2007 Crianza sports black currant and dark chocolate flavors that are rich and seductive. There are also hints of smoke, dark flowers, and anise that add some depth and dimension to the wine. It makes me think longingly of the other specialty from the region - lamb chops.
