Torremoron, Ribera del Duero "Tempranillo" 2006

Red/purple.

Oak spice, earth, grilled steak nose.

Round, full, citrus/pepper entry. Acid constriction shuts down the mid-palate to some extent, but also drives citrus/pepper flavor well into the finish. Definitely chewy, but not crazy. This has real character and depth for something so cheap.

Love the name. Give this to someone that loves fruit-driven, confectionary wines. You'll never hear from them again.

$15. Synthetic cork.
