Nuntia Vini 2005 Volvoreta Probus (Toro)

Country: Spain / Volvoreta Probus
Variety: Tinta de Toro Northern Spain
Winery: Nuntia Vini / Toro

Crushed floral aromas, berry-infused tea and cherry candy aromas give this wine a sweet profile. The palate, however, is anything but. It pounds with toasty black fruit, licorice and fiery menthol. The feel is a bit tannic but not terribly harsh, so maybe another three to five years will serve it well.
