Tasting- Finca del Castillo Tempranillo 





Name: Finca del Castillo Tempranillo
Variety: 100% Rioja
Region: Tempranillo
Country: Spain
Year: 2011
Price: $4.95

Wine Reviews: Rooty, spicy and baked on the nose, with aromas that lean towards
raisin. The palate is more gritty and acidic, with raisin, cola, and
spic flavors. Darkens up on the finish, which is long and peppery,
with adequate juiciness and a final note of tomato.

My Review:  The wine had a slightly spicy taste.  I did not enjoy the taste at all.  I did not experience the raisin or cola taste but there was definitely a pepper and tomato taste with a left unpleasant after-taste.

I did not have this wine with food.
