O. Fournier 2002 Spiga (Ribera del Duero)

Country: Spain / Spiga
Variety: Tinto del Pais Northern Spain
Winery: O. Fournier / Ribera del Duero

In general O. Fournier gets it right, be it in Spain or Argentina. But this Ribera del Duero struggles from the outset. It’s rubbery, damp and lacks clarity of fruit. And the feel is sharp and lemony, seemingly a combo of excessive oak and raw fruit. Imported by Fine Wines from Spain.
