Hemar 2006 Roble (Ribera del Duero)

Country: Spain / Roble
Variety: Tempranillo Northern Spain
Winery: Hemar / Ribera del Duero

An herbal and brambly roughneck with forced aromas, lots of leather, and ultimately cranberry and other tart red-fruit flavors. Not much body, and thus it’s short and piquant.
