Navarro López Pergolas Old Vines Tempranillo 2009

Valdepeñas, Castilla-La Mancha, SpainTempranillo can surprise when well-made as this spicy, peppery, tobacco, black cherry, smoky red with caraway and leather aromas is. The palate is fresh and elegant with light astringency and more smoky, tobacco, meaty, cedar, peppery, cherry, orange and herb flavours. A touch astringent and young but with fine balance and intensity to go with meat dishes. Solid value and effort here.Tasted: 16 January 2013Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
