2017 Torremilanos, Ribera del Duero, Los Cantos (RT92) Another impressive vintage for Los Cantos, a blend of 95% Tempranillo and 5% Merlot that’s aged for 14-16 months in used French and American oak. The level of sophistication in the 2017 is up from the previous vintage a notch, as it reveals beautiful, perfectly ripe Tempranillo, buttressed by fresh acidity and a sumptuous tannic finish that adds punctuation to a great presentation, while the doppel of Merlot adds a hint of Bordeaux-like character. This is a tasty vintage for Los Cantos! Drink now-2027
