WINE DESCRIPTION A very rare bottle out of one barrique produced (some 240 bottles and few magnums produced) of the already legendary Dominio del Aguila highly regarded by wine professionals. "The Dominio del Águila Taravante Barrica Singular 2018 reflects my soul as well as the terroir of the Ribera del Duero in perfection. I only made one barrique. So there are only around 240 bottles and a few magnums of this wine. The grapes come from the very old Taravante vineyard, which lies at an impressive altitude between Canta la Perdiz and Peñas Aladas (both locations of 100 Parker point wines). The vines were already planted by my great-grandfather and are the best my winery has to offer".
