Estupendo Vino

2000 Finca Sobreno
Seleccion Especial
Toro, Espana
(100% Tempranillo)
Shane’s Notes
$13.99

This wine is dark red and exudes jammy aromas with strong scents of currant and cedar. The complexity of the palate is amazing for a wine of this price. The palate entry has a rose water flavor, and the mid palate shows a myriad of flavors including jam, cigar box, currants and buttered popcorn. There is also a light vanilla flavor that complements rather than overpowers the other flavors. The texture is silky and the finish is tangy, dry and very, very long. All the flavors are mild so this is an excellent food wine. This wine is elegant and quite stunning!
