Ribera del Duero Reserva Briego 1995
The Ribera del Duero Reserva Briego 1995 is a red wine produced by Bodegas Briego. Classified as a Denominación de Origen, this Reserva was elaborated and bottled directly on the estate in Spain. The 1995 vintage was released as part of a limited production consisting of 11,400 bottles, with an alcohol content of 13%.
The wine originates from Ribera del Duero, situated on Spain's high Duero plain. The region is characterized by extreme temperature differences between day and night, which naturally influences the vineyards. This area is highly regarded in the wine world and is home to the country's most legendary estate, Vega Sicilia.
The production relies on Tempranillo, Spain's primary grape variety, which is locally referred to as Tinto Fino. While Tempranillo is widely cultivated in prominent wine areas such as Rioja and California, it remains the almost exclusive focus of the winegrowers in Ribera del Duero.

Ribera del Duero
Ribera del Duero lies on Spain's high Duero plateau, where extreme temperature swings between day and night produce concentrated grapes. The region grows almost exclusively Tempranillo, known locally as Tinto Fino, and is home to the country's most legendary estate, Vega Sicilia. The wines are deep, powerful and age-worthy with dark berries, firm tannins and great structure.
