Tasting profile

Structure: full-bodied, medium tannin, medium acidity, dry

Cigales sits just north of Valladolid and spent most of its history making rosado — its shift to serious reds is recent, and Finca Museum is the estate that did most to prove the case. The wine comes from old Tempranillo bush vines on gravel and limestone soils, and Reserva status means three years' ageing with at least one in oak. It is a warmer, rounder style than neighbouring Ribera del Duero: ripe black cherry and plum with vanilla, coconut and sweet spice from a good deal of American oak, plus the leather and dried-fig notes of bottle age. Soft-edged and approachable rather than austere.
