Natalie's Score: 92/100

From Viña Vilano in Ribera del Duero, Legón Premium 2018 is a lush 100% Tempranillo sourced from old vines, some over 100 years old! Deep, bright ruby red in the glass, dry, medium-plus-bodied and fragrant with ripe dark plum, black currant and cherry compote flavours with a hint of smoky vanilla on the palate, it lingers on with sweet baking spices and dark chocolate notes. Tannins are velvety. Enjoy with a roast leg of lamb or Manchego cheese. Bodega Viña Vilano is located in the village of Pedrosa de Duero, province of Burgos and has over 300 hectares of Tinta del País grapes known locally as Tempranillo.

Premium food pairings: roast pork, meat-lover's pizza, beef bourguignon.

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
