Wine Tasting: El Sierro Tempranillo/Cab


Name: El Sierro Tempranillo/Cab
Variety: Tempranillo/Cab
Country: Spain
Region: N/A
Year: 2011
Price: $7.95
Review: Dark ruby in color with rich aromas of red fruit and light spices.  It is a real knockout with delicious flavors of dark cherries, blackberries, and vanilla, all perfectly integrated.  The Tempranillo provides wonderful spice and fruit, while the Cabernet Sauvignon gives structure and depth with beautiful use of oak.
My Review: This was a nice wine.  I was able to detect much of the spices and vanilla flavors rather than fruits.  This was the one of few Tempranillos I have had, and definitely one of the best.
