Lovers not Toreadors 2013 Tempranillo



Ribera Del Duero, Spain
A dark plum in colour that is sparkling like a Ruby under the down light. A hint of oak pops out with a tickle of my nostrils from a gentle waft of alcohol. With a swirl of the glass and some coaxing cherries and chocolate appear. From the nose to the palate the chocolate and cherries flow with slightly grippy tannins that balance against a smooth silky feel, a little white pepper on the finish. We enjoyed this with a well matched char grilled porterhouse. 14/20 Cheers Gaz
