From Spain's newest DO Sierra de Salamanca, a Rufete/Tempranillo blend. Rustic tannins, meaty/bloody nose, with a sort of ping pong between anise and mentholated blackberry. Needs a fatty steak. I'd love to taste older examples

Feb 22nd, 2015A complex nose with black fruit, leather, and a bit of earthiness. Light on the palate but an immediate bite of black pepper tannins and a good bit of acid, but then smooths out with the underlying black fruits. Pleasantly surprised by a bottle that we're not quite sure where it came from!
