The nose of the 2020 Reserva is beautiful, perfumed and floral, showy and expressive, really open. The palate is medium to full-bodied, with fine-boned and very fine and chalky tannins. It has 14% alcohol, not a shy red, with power and concentration, freshness and terrific balance. It has a long finish with a touch of licorice and violets. It has to be among the best vintages for Reserva. 2020 was a very good year for Dominio del Águila. It matured in French oak barrels for 33 months. 38,221 bottles and 868 magnums produced. It was bottled in July 2023. It is young but approachable and should age beautifully. - LG

The 2020 Dominio del Águila Reserva is 95% Tempranillo with other local varieties from La Aguilera, Ribera del Duero. It offers intense aromas of soft oak, ripe black fruit, balsamic hint, plum and blackberry. The palate is juicy, with medium tension and flowing, fine-grained tannins. There is a touch of violet and a mature fruit profile. Expressive and juicy. Compared to the 2019, it is slightly riper and more full-bodied. -- Joaquín Hidalgo
