Country: Spain / 24 Meses en Barrica
Variety: Tempranillo Northern Spain
Winery: Monteabellón / Ribera del Duero
Rubber, cured meat and herbal berry aromas feed into a tomatoey palate with raw acidity and rough tannins. This features gritty flavors of berry and raisin, while the finish is a bit flat in feel and tastes of prune and stalky, roasted berries. Unlike many Ribera wines, this is earthy and not overly ripe. Drink through 2017.
