Join us for Part 2 with Master of Wine Tim Atkin. Following our exploration of the Rioja region in the previous episode, we now turn our attention to the renowned Ribera del Duero. Tim recently unveiled his comprehensive report on this dynamic area, and he shares insights into what makes it so distinctive and prestigious. While Tempranillo takes center stage, we delve into an even older grape variety – Albillo Mayor, a parent of Tempranillo.
Additionally Tim reveals the intricacies of composing his wine reports, shedding light on the meticulous process of tasting, evaluating, and ultimately assigning rankings to wineries and wines.
