The Washington Post named Bocca Roble, by Bodegas Hercal in Ribera del Duero, its Wine of the Week in July 2020. Wine critic Dave McIntyre wrote:

“Each sip quietly pulled my attention back to my glass for another sniff of the black fruit and tobacco leaf aromas, signatures of the tempranillo grape. And ultimately, its savory taste and lingering finish had me licking my lips, wanting more. And the more I tasted it, the more I liked it.”

Bocca Roble is a Tempranillo aged nine months in barrel. The selection placed this Ribera del Duero red before one of the most influential wine audiences in the United States.
