Made from old-vine Tempranillo, it opens with black cherry, blackberry, plum and cassis, before vanilla, cedar, tobacco, cocoa, leather and sweet spice begin to unfold. The fruit is now mellow and composed, but still carries the richness and structure of a serious Ribera.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe palate is broad, smooth and beautifully settled, with ripe black fruit, polished tannins and a fresh line of acidity keeping everything alive. The oak has melted into the wine, bringing chocolate, spice and savoury warmth rather than weight. Think old leather, black fruit compote, cedar box and a long, quietly powerful finish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor when\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e you want a mature Spanish red with gravitas, warmth and proper old-vine depth.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePairs with\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e roast lamb, rib of beef, venison, mushroom stew, aged manchego, chargrilled pork, or anything slow-cooked with garlic and herbs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIf this wine were…\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e a compass, it would be brass and dark wood, pointing steadily towards a candlelit table in Castilla y León.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSelección César Muñoz is a personal project from winemaker César Muñoz, focused on old-vine Tempranillo from high-altitude sites in Ribera del Duero. Magallanes comes from very old vines, around a century in age, grown in the cooler eastern reaches of the appellation, where altitude helps preserve freshness and structure. The wine is shaped in a traditional but precise style, with careful selection, ageing in French oak and a focus on balanced power rather than excess.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wine Republic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55159891067265,"sku":null,"price":22.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/0513\/9841\/files\/2010MagallanesRiberadelDuero_CesarMunoz.png?v=1780929600","url":"https:\/\/www.wine-republic.co.uk\/products\/2010-magallanes-ribeira-del-duero-cesar-munoz","provider":"Wine Republic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
