Country: Spain / Vendimia Seleccionada
Variety: Tempranillo Northern Spain
Winery: Mauro / Vino de la Tierra de Castilla y León
Starts with aromas of beef jerky, licorice and berry syrup. It’s a brawny, dark wine with jammy blackberry flavors along with chocolate cake and thick, grabbing tannins. Finishes sweet and syrupy, with heavy saturation and big tannins. Not in perfect balance and by no means a great wine from Mauro. But it’s still good for an off year. A Europvin, Christopher Cannan selection, Imported by multiple importers, including Michael Skurnik Wines.
