Zumaya Tempranillo Ribera del Duero 2005
Ribera del Duero, Castilla-Leon, SpainZumaya takes its name from the small owl that lives in the region and it's a new concept in the D.O. Ribera del Duero, namely ready to drink earlier. This is 100 per cent tempranillo, hand-picked grapes grown on 25 year-old vines close to Aranda del Duero, in the heart of the D.O. The colour is dark, the nose a mix of smoke and meaty red fruits. The flavour is a mix cranberry and black fruits with bits of vanilla and mocha from the American oak barrels it is aged in. A touch alcoholic if otherwise a solid Spanish red.Tasted: 03 September 2007Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:| BC | $15.99 | 750ml | specialty listing |
