Tasting: Tempranillo


Tempranillo; Center



Name: Marques de Moral Crianza Tempranillo
Variety: 100% Tempranillo
Region: Valdepenas
Country: Spain
Year: 2007
Price: $7.95

Winery Review: Medium Red. Aromas of redcurrant and cherry, plus a hint of dried rose. Fleshy and smooth, with moderate depth to its slightly bitter red fruit flavors. Finishes with decent breadth and grip, with the redcurrant element joined by a hint of white pepper.

My Review: The smell was very peppery. When I first tasted it, it just felt smooth and very light. The second time, it had more cherry tones and the finish was peppery.
