Tasting - El Sierro Tempranillo/Cab


Name: El Sierro
Variety:  Cabernet Sauvignon and Tempranillo

Region:  Valencia
Country: Spain
Year:  2011
Price:  $7.95

Shop Review:  Dark Ruby in color with rich aromas of red fruit and light spices. It is a real knock-out 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 the beautiful use of oak. 

Tasting Review:  Good. The nose favors the Tempranillo coming through with raisins and prunes followed by a plummy mid palate. High acidity with medium tannins and a hot finish.
