Legaris Crianza Tempranillo (Spain 2003)

Category: Tempranillo — Mike @ 6:38 am

	This wine is a Tempranillo from the Ribera del Duero region of Spain. Tempranillo in this region is known as Tinta Fina. This wine has already aged for 5 years and will age very nicely for another 5.
	$12 from Costco

Aromas of chocolate, wood and ripe berries. Flavors of plumb, chocolate and vanilla in the finish. Abundant flavors with soft tannins. Very smooth and wonderfully complex. This is a thoroughly enjoyable bottle of wine that is fantastic to open now. We would love to have another bottle of this to keep for an additional 5 years to see how it matures. Complex and vibrant, just like your favorite charismatic Hollywood actress – except that this wine really is complex and vibrant, it’s not just putting on a show.
