Parada de Atauta · 2022

PAR92/100
4.5/5
29 reviews

Mature and tannic, in keeping with its clear-cut Ribera core, Parada de Atauta always amazes due to its great finesse. The Atauta hallmark. It’s one of the best examples of a Ribera that’s powerful yet accessible, a good Ribera starting point which enables us to get to know the denomination’s most westerly corner. It’s the location of the vineyards in one of the Ribera’s coolest areas, the province of Soria, which has a lot to do with the wine’s fresh profile. Naturally also playing its part is the fine work of the wine-making team, which has been bringing forward the date of harvesting over the years, as well as having reduced the percentage of new barrels and introduced concrete as an element in the wine-making process.

About the vineyard[+]

The Dominio de Atauta vineyards are located in the most easterly area of the denomination, in the province of Soria, in an incredibly harsh environment that appears almost forgotten and abandoned, yet one that still has much to offer.
