Country: Spain / Cenit VDC Old Vines
Variety: Tempranillo Northern Spain
Winery: Viñas del Cenit / Tierra del Viños de Zamora
Few wines of this quality come from Zamora, and if you like top-flight Ribera del Duero or Toro reds then give this heavyweight a try. It’s packed with earthy blackberry and licorice aromas that fall in front of a saturated palate sporting cola, berry syrup, chocolate and coffee flavors. Sweet and oaky on the finish. Drink now through 2014.
