Tasting- Finca del Castillo Tempranillo

Name: Finca del Castillo Tempranillo
Variety: 100% Tempranillo
Region: La Mancha
Country: Spain
Year: 2015
Price: $4.95

Winery Review: Vivid ruby. Spice-accented red and dark berry aromas show good clarity and a hint of fresh rose. Juicy and seamless on the palate, offering lively currant and bitter cherry flavors that become sweeter with air. Clings with good tenacity on the energetic finish, which repeats the floral note and shows no tannins.

My Review: Getting to reds now which I have slightly more experience in, yay! Upon tasting this red wine I deduce berry and fruity flavors, though again, my palate is not trained enough to be able to specify those berries or fruits. This was a dry wine with a potentially tannins feel.

Paired with food: No, still a free tasting!
