The estate and the wine |
|
|
A leading figure in Spain’s new wave of winemakers, Jorge Monzón has built an impressive career alongside some of the world’s greatest estates, including Romanée-Conti and Vega Sicilia.
At his Dominio del Águila estate, farmed organically with biodynamic practices, he has spent over a decade crafting intensely expressive wines, treated with the same precision as the finest grands crus.
His talent has earned him a place among the legends—joining Pingus in the exclusive club of 100-point Parker wines from Ribera del Duero. |

Bursting with ripe, juicy cherry aromas, the 2022 Red Ribera del Duero Pícaro showcases remarkable freshness and brilliantly reflects its terroir. A distinct limestone and mineral character adds depth, supported by a bold structure with firm tannins that will soften over time. This is a serious, dense wine with great ageing potential, promising an exciting evolution. If you plan to enjoy it young, decant it beforehand or serve it in a large glass to fully appreciate its complexity. Rated 94/100 by Parker. |
