Country: Spain / Tinto 12 Crianza
Variety: Tempranillo Northern Spain
Winery: García Figuero / Ribera del Duero
The nose on this Crianza is front-loaded with oak and related aromas of spice and vanilla. In the mouth, this is tannic and resiny. Similar to the nose, this tastes woody, with barrel-related side notes of cinnamon and clove. A dry pulling tannic finish suggests that another year or two in bottle is in order. Drink through 2024.
