Having purchased cases of wine from B‑21 for the last year, I can't say enough about this company. The selection is extensive, pricing reasonable and order fulfillment and shipping are fast. Even when the "delivery company" gets in wrong, they make it right. They have a faithful customer in me. Debbie W Hilton Head Island, SC

I’ve been using B21 for over 2 years now, for all my hard to find liquors, from Tier 1 Tequilas to exotic liqueurs, and they are hands down, the premier online alcohol delivery service I’be ever dealt with. They’re fast, convenient and most importantly, they have what you’re looking for. So if you’re having hard time finding the alcohol no one else seems to carry, not even other alcohol delivery services, take a look at B21. You won’t be disappointed. And if you have the chance to go to their warehouse, do so, it’s like Alcoholics Heaven in there.

We like buying a favorite wine on B‑21 on the 21st of the month. Free shipping. Unfortunately they raised the requirement for free shipping a bit making us mix up the case.

Always good, they raised their price to get free shipping, it e everything is going up, I had a dispute on a shipping charge because they didn’t have the correct inventory, I called and they gave me a partial credit, so overall I’m happy with the service, Ed in PA.

I have been ordering from B‑21 for perhaps 5 years, maybe more, at least once a month. With a substantial number of bottles ordered, I find it's remarkable that this company has yet to make a mistake. Remarkable.

I searched for this wine locally and found nothing. I found it online, price‑shopped and purchased a case from B‑21. I rec'd frequent communiques throughout the ordering process. The best was is was ready for pickup within days at my local Walgreens. I received the exact wine and year I requested. I'd definitely shop here again!

2020 Bodegas Aster Crianza (750ml)

Tempranillo from Ribera del Duero, Castilla y Leon, Spain

B-21 Top Recommendation
Read More

Crafted by the team behind the legendary La Rioja Alta, the fresh and appealing 93 pt. 2020 Bodegas Aster Crianza offers juicy ripe dark fruit layered with zesty spice and well-integrated tannins on a long and focused finish, a beautifully balanced, easy to drink Ribera del Duero that’s bargain priced for Spanish wine lovers to enjoy often over the next decade.

After searching for a prime parcel to produce Ribera de Duero beginning in the 1980’s, iconic producer La Rioja Alta purchased 95 hectares between the towns of La Horra and Anguix south of Burgos and planted 76 hectares with the local clone of Tempranillo in 1991, naming the project Bodegas Aster after the late blooming Spanish flower. Located at an altitude of 780 meters, the estate’s Tinta del Pais vines are planted in silty-loam soils laced with limestone and iron in a prime, high-altitude terroir described as home of “the best wines” in the region by critic Tim Atkin, enjoying warm days for optimal ripening with cool night temps that preserve the grapes’ freshness and acidity. Produced in the estate’s modern winery since 2002, the wines of Bodegas Aster have demonstrated “a remarkable increase in the quality” according to Luis Gutierrez Wine Advocate since their first harvests where most of the young fruit was sold off, the sustainably farmed vines maturing over the last decades to produce exceptional quality fruit deemed worthy of the estate’s high standards. Fermenting the hand harvested 100% Tempranillo grapes in French oak barrels, La Rioja Alta’s veteran winemaker Julio Saenz aged the impressive 2020 Bodegas Aster Crianza for 16 months in 75% new French oak barrels and the remainder in second-use French oak with extended time in bottle, yielding juicy ripe fruit with nuances of smokey spice and a smooth, silky texture that beckons for another taste.

From a top producer renowned for crafting “wines that speak about where they come from” according to Neal Martin of Vinous, the elegant 93 pt. Bodegas Aster Crianza offers Ribera del Duero’s signature full-bodied richness with layered fine tannins that promise longevity, a terrific value for fans of terroir-driven Tempranillo expertly crafted by one of Spain's most storied estates.

93JS

A lovely brightness and juiciness to this with cherry, spice, and crushed stone. Some tar. Medium-bodied with chewy tannins that have a dusty undertone. Tannic and typical for Duero. Already attractive if you like tannins, but this will soften nicely with two or three more years of bottle age. Try after 2025.
