Conde de Siruela 2011 Roble (Ribera del Duero)

Country: Spain / Roble
Variety: Tempranillo Northern Spain
Winery: Conde de Siruela / Ribera del Duero

Hickory, roasted black fruit, vanilla, rubber and plastic aromas set up a big but balanced feeling palate. Flavors of roasted blackberry are rubbery and come with oaky vanilla, while this feels good on the finish with an overriding oak character in the driver’s seat.
