On 27 April 2017 the temperature in Ribera del Duero stayed below zero for more than seven hours. The frost cut yields to around 2,000 kilos per hectare at best, and there are 600 bottles of Cayetana. Dense ruby, black fruit, leather and spice, with tertiary notes from the long ageing; powerful on the palate, with silky tannins and great length.
The bodega advises decanting it, or even opening the bottle the day before, and we would take that seriously. Serve it with rack of lamb, aged Ibérico ham or game.
