Albero Tempranillo (Spain, 2006)

Category: Tempranillo — Mike @ 8:30 am

	This is an organic Tempranillo from Spain. I hadn’t browsed the wine isle at T.J.’s in a while and was intrigued to find an organic Tempranillo from Spain there. There is also a Cabernet from Albero that we want to review as well. Jason has some more insights as to the origin of this wine and a review as well. Overall we were pleased with this $6 wine and would buy it again.
	$6 from Trader Joes

Strong cherry aroma with hints of vanilla. Decent balance, with a weak short finish. Simple and pleasant, but lacks any enjoyable complexity. Chocolate on the finish. *This wine like having the Monday of a long weekend off… you’re really happy to have the day off but you don’t really do anything really exciting or very interesting.*
