Winemaker Notes

This exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon comes from a limestone-rich terroir blessed with its own microclimate. After a complete maceration, it spent sixteen months developing its potential in new oak barrels. Dark color, which gives off a delicate air of sweet spices, exotic fruit, mineral flavors, which together show us its generous, yet at the same time complex, body. On the palate, well assembled and persistent, promising a great ageing potential.

Professional Ratings

    The 2010 Pago Valdebellon, pure Cabernet Sauvignon from their higher-altitude vineyard which shows a slightly reductive nose (we opened two bottles and one was more reductive than the other, but they both were) with those notes intermixed with the herbal aromas of the variety that point to the need for energetic decanting. The palate is medium to full-bodied with grainy tannins and just enough acidity, with final flavors coming from the barrel.

Abadia Retuerta, Spain
Abadia Retuerta Winery Image

The Abadía Retuerta Estate occupies over 700 hectares of terrain, and its name comes from the combination of two words that define and describe the territory: Rívula (river bank) and Torta (twisting, winding). Over 204 hectares of vineyards are spread out on hillsides ranging in altitude from a maximum 850 metres down to the southern bank of the Duero River. Most of the world's best varieties of soil are represented.

Designed by famous French enologist, Pascal Delbeck, in 1996, Abadía Retuerta winery is a surprising combination of tradition and modernity, recognized as one of the most advanced wineries in Europe. Currently, Angel Anocíbar Beloqui (PhD in Enology and Ampelography from the University of Bordeaux and International Wine Challenge 2005 Winemaker of the Year) coordinates the entire process, from the vine to the bottle.

Abadía Retuerta estate wines offer some very unique characteristics. They are full-colored wines, intense and aromatically clean, clearly structured, smooth to the palate and delicate in the development of their strength.

Spanish red wine is known for being bold, heady, rustic and age-worthy, Spain is truly a one-of-a-kind wine-producing nation. A great majority of the country is hot, arid and drought-ridden, and since irrigation has only been recently introduced and (controversially) accepted, viticulture has sustained—and flourished—only through a great understanding of Spain’s particular conditions. Large spacing between vines allows each enough resources to survive and as a result, the country has the most acreage under vine compared to any other country, but is usually third in production.

Of the Spanish red wines, the most planted and respected grape variety is Tempranillo, the star of Spain’s Rioja and Ribera del Duero regions. Priorat specializes in bold red blends, Jumilla has gained global recognition for its single varietal Monastrell and Utiel-Requena has garnered recent attention for its reds made of Bobal.
