Torres Celeste Crianza 2008

Ribera del Duero, Castilla-Leon, SpainVery meaty, smoky, barnyard, coffee, cedar, tobacco leaf, peppery aromas with a savoury, plum and vanilla streak. Round, dry, fresh palate with light tannins and medium light palate extraction. Big meaty, gamey, smoky, leather, barnyard, cooked carrot, resin, coffee and cherry flavours with a light rooty, vanilla, savoury, Band-Aid finish. Solid but a bit too rustic and lacking the extract of past vintages.Tasted: 05 March 2011Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
