Tasting - El Sierro Tempranillo/Cab"

Name: El Sierro Tempranillo/Cab
Variety: Tempranillo/Cab

Country: Spain
Year: 2011
Price: $7.95


Winery 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."
The Vintage Cellar


My Review: nice fruity aroma, with dark fruit flavors; dark cherries, blackberries, etc.  The taste, however, was brighter, with a lot of sour flavors coming out, lemon, apple, and even a hint of spices.  The texture was dry, very interesting, and changed up the flavor profile on the finish.  Overall, not a bad wine.
