Tasting Notes

This is hedonism bottled, perfectly capturing the essence of Ricardo Arambarri and Raul Acha's ambitious, slowly evolved passion project. A seamlessly crafted Tempranillo exuding haunting aromatics and a dense palate packed with dark fruit, unique minerality, and polish. Over-delivering on an insane scale, it rivals any exorbitantly priced “full-bodied” red—Ribera del Duero, Super Tuscans, Napa Cabernet, you name it. That’s why we highly recommend switching out a couple of those for today’s $35 stunner. Given its endlessly layered depth and decadence, you won’t miss them one bit.

"No fewer than 40 small parcels in Villálvaro and Alcubilla de Avellaneda supply the grapes for this blend of Tempranillo with a little Albillo Mayor and Garnacha. Very much a highaltitude style, this is youthful and intense, with toasty oak top notes, blackberry, tangerine and bramble fruit and the concentration to age."

92 Points - Tim Atkin MW, Ribera del Duero 2025

"From the remote Soria region, at almost 1,000 meters above sea level, comes the freshest expression of Tempranillo. This red wine combines century-old vines with new plantings to achieve vibrant fruit and precise acidity after 12 months of aging in oak. Fresh and with velvety tannins, it is ideal for mushroom dishes or white meats."

The Producer

Bardos

Bardos has a rich history that dates back to the 19th century. In 1992, Julie Johnson, the owner of Bardos and her husband, Bart, founded Tres Sabores Winery. After years of success, they decided to expand their portfolio and acquired the historic St. Helena winery that is now Bardos.

Luc Morlet is the winemaker at Bardos. His passion for winemaking can be traced back to his childhood in France, where he grew up in a wine-producing family. He has worked at some of the most prestigious wineries in France and California, including Peter Michael Winery and Newton Vineyard.

The Napa Valley is known for its diverse terroir, and Bardos is no exception. The winery is located in the St. Helena AVA, which is known for its warm days and cool nights. The soil is a mix of volcanic ash and alluvial deposits, which creates a unique flavor profile in the wines. The winery also produces wines from the Howell Mountain AVA, which has a higher elevation and a cooler climate.
