Tasting - El Sierro

Name:  El Sierro
Variety:  Cabernet - Tempranillo
Region:  Valencia
Country:  Spain
Year:  2011
Price:  $7.95

Winery Review:  Dark ruby in color with rich aromas of red fruit and light spices. It is a real knock-out with delicious flavors of dark cherries, blackberries and vanilla all perfectly integrated. The Tempranillo provides wonderful spice and fruit, while the Cabernet Sauvignon gives structure and depth with the beautiful use of oak.

My Review:  In the wine glass, this wine is a violet color.  The wine smells like oak and vanilla.  This wine was dry with and medium mouth-feel and acidic finish.  This wine had prominent flavors of oak and blackberry.  This was a decent blended wine.

I did not drink this wine with food.
