Sancho Baron Tempranillo


Tuesday, February 25, 2014

Name: Sancho Baron

 

Variety: Tempranillo (14% Alcohol)
Region: Rioja
Country: Spain
Year: 2009
Price: $13


My Review:  This wine looks light to medium bodied, with a purple plum color and ruby red. It has a strong strawberry, blackberry smell with a hint of rubber. This wine tastes strongly of strawberry with a moderate amount of tannins. It is a relatively light red wine with a watery consistency. This wine balances tannins and fruit flavors very well. It is probably the lightest red wine I have ever had, which is not necessarily a bad thing.


Winery Review: Deep red color, with fresh fruit and spicy aromas. Full body with intense flavors of berries, minerals, and toasted spices. Rich and smooth, long and persistent. Best with meats and cheese.



I did not drink this with food
I probably would drink this again
