Cillar de Silos Ribera del Duero Crianza 2022 Magnum
Member Price €45.02
Nothing beats a magnum of great wine. It looks sensational, tastes sensational, and lasts much longer than a normal bottle.
Oscar describes this as his signature wine - because dozens of high-end restaurants and bars across Northern Spain rely on it as a big seller, it needs to be consistently awesome every single year.
The Tempranillo grapes for this are sourced from 40-80 year-old plots across 3 villages around Oscar’s winery. It spends 13 months ageing in 2nd and 3rd use French oak barrels, which were first used for Oscar’s iconic Torresilo wine. It’s then aged for a further year in bottle to bring all the fruity and oaky flavours together.
This is an amazing example of affordable and approachable Ribera del Duero, whether you’re new to Ribera or a complete convert like me.

It was on a trip early in my wine career to see Oscar and his sister Amelia that I properly fell in love with Ribera del Duero.
Ribera is right beside Rioja in northern Spain but because it sits on an elevated plain, the days are hotter and nights are colder. So the wines tend to be more powerful, but also fresher. It’s the perfect recipe for creating ultra-premium and long-lived reds.
