Tempranillo from Southern Oregon. Curious to try it against a #Rioja Tempranillo.

Ok I agree it is inky dark. This is the 2009 vintage. Drink it now it is at the peak of flavor and the finish is dry as I like it. Fruit? yes but not fruity! Lingering finish for 2 min. Heaven in a temperanillo. I have been a fan of Abacela since 1999.
