Anta 2004 A10 Nuestra Perfección (Ribera del Duero)

Country: Spain / A10 Nuestra Perfección
Variety: Tempranillo Blend Northern Spain
Winery: Anta / Ribera del Duero

Burnt oak, tire rubber and bramble vie with blackberry and vanilla aromas. The palate is brambly and a little lean, with strawberry and raspberry flavors taking on some grassy wildness. Simply stated, the fruit flavors just aren’t of the highest order. Otherwise, it’s good enough.
