Vina Gormaz Ribera del Duero 2007

Ribera del Duero, Castilla-Leon, SpainFrom cooperative to recently privatized winery Bodegas Gormaz controls the majority of vines in Ribera del Duero's Soria province, the highest of the region's sub districts. The vines, dry farmed and head pruned are routinely 50 years of age and older. The old vine tempranillo over delivers for its price. Look a dense dark fruity red with sweet plums, earth and spicy undertones with typically soft approachable tannins in the finish.Tasted: 12 November 2009Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
