Orben 2019 is an exceptional red wine that comes from the careful selection of 79 micro-parcels, each less than half a hectare, planted in bush between 1945 and 1954 in the beautiful setting of Laguardia. This wine has an overwhelming majority of Tempranillo, giving it unique depth and expressiveness, combining elegance and persistence. Its cherry-red color, intense and mature, makes it visually appealing. Aromatically, Orben offers a charming complexity. On the nose, very ripe black fruit notes such as blackberry and sloe emerge, accompanied by lactic, spicy (including vanilla), and noble wood scents like cedar. This aromatic bouquet culminates in touches of chocolate and a subtle smoky background, making it a delight for the senses. On the palate, the wine is powerful and meaty, showing great definition. Its mature and noble tannins blend with all components, providing a broad and characterful mouthfeel. Each sip reveals a generous load of ripe fruit, well-balanced with toasted notes from its careful barrel aging. With a long and complex finish, Orben leaves notes of ripe black fruit and spices on the palate, making it an excellent choice to pair with meats and elaborate dishes. It is definitely a wine that deserves a place on the table of wine lovers.
