Arrocal 2011 Ángel (Ribera del Duero)

Country: Spain / Ángel
Variety: Tempranillo Northern Spain
Winery: Arrocal / Ribera del Duero

Cool, earthy blackberry, cassis and boot-leather aromas are strapping and integrated. This feels layered and structured, with chewy depth, firm tannins and power. Baked, toasty, chocolaty flavors bring ripe-fruit notes of fig, prune and blackberry, while the finish is long and savory, with a strong accent of wood spice. Drink through 2025.
