Espana Robles 2012 Red (Paso Robles)

Country: US /
Variety: Tempranillo Blend California
Winery: Espana Robles / Paso Robles

Though obscure in America, this Tempranillo-Grenache blend is not uncommon in Spain, and the results are solid. Thick aromas of plum extract, black pepper, fudge and tobacco lead into a rich and luxurious mouthfeel. Ripe flavors of boysenberry and olallieberry are cut by a very spicy edge of black pepper and mocha.
