Finding a Sense of Place in Spain’s Ribera del Duero

Over the last decade or so, there has been a trend by winemakers all over the world to produce wines that have a similar “International” style – that is to say that they seem striped of their sense of place. But not so with the Spanish wines from the region of Ribera del Duero. At a recent tasting I was pleasantly surprised by how many of the wines actually tasted “of a place.”
