Country: Spain / Northern Spain
Variety: Tempranillo
Winery: François Lurton / El Albar Lurton Barricas
Big and forward on the bouquet, this has loud, fiery black-cherry and berry aromas. Like most Lurton wines of Spanish origin, El Albar is chewy and ripe, with a syrupy feel and flavors of blackberry, stewed plum and spice cake. The finish is chocolaty, beefy and concentrated.
