Convento Oreja 2012 Roble (Ribera del Duero)

Country: Spain / Roble
Variety: Tempranillo Blend Northern Spain
Winery: Convento Oreja / Ribera del Duero

Lightly herbal aromas and a touch of animal blend with oak-based notes of sweet plastic and vanilla on the nose. The palate is round but slightly flabby, with moderate acidity. Lactic oak creates a plastic-like flavor that is derivative of the nose, while the finish is drab.
