Fernández Gómez 2012 Crianza (Rioja)

Country: Spain / Crianza
Variety: Tempranillo Northern Spain

Aggressive black-fruit aromas come with earthy, spicy notes that include licorice root. This feels tight, linear and a bit sharp. Flavors of plum, berry, pepper and toast set up a finish that’s oaky, spicy and acidic.
