Finca Torremilanos Los Cantos Ribera del Duero Tempranillo

Tropics wine (cont): supermarket wine, hard to believe I was the last Delectable reviewer. Less purple than memory serves, & rather constrained given the Ribera source

Not my type-too much of a purple wine for my tastes. NYT disagreed

Lush red cherries and raspberries. Plum, fig and prune. Sweet spices and a touch of vanilla and pepper. Medium plus acidity, soft tannins.

A blend of 5% merlot in the Tempranillo aged for 13 months on barrique

#riberadelduero made for international markets, too oaky, and vanilla notes. nothing wrong but not unique

Big , full , 12 moths in Barriques

Vino ecológico con una muy buena nariz y con una boca sedosa potente y larga

Dark ruby colour, blackberies, raspberry, plum, nice rounded tanins, short after taste

Tempranillo with a small amount (3%) of Merlot. Dark fruit, some herbal notes. Fresh, lively, good acidity

Medium ruby color. Aromas of blackberry, black currant and raspberry. Let this one sit open for a few hours and it got a lot better. Lucious red fruit with a black tea finish.
