Venta Morales TempranilloFor the shelf price, this wine is personally and financially satisfying, but for the seeker of the true enjoyment of a Tempranillo, to absorb the centuries old wine wisdom of La Mancha and Rioja, it is a modicum disappointing. It has a notably smooth texture, with an aromatic start and free flowing velvety ribbons on the tongue mingling with sugars and ripe strawberries. It is still complementary to the nose as well as the subsequent sips, but lacking some depth and acidic edges from the traditional red fruits and white sugars you would find in a Tempranillo. A great wine for the price, no doubt, but the back end is, in my opinion, a little shy on the intrinsic notes of Tempranillo from the same region. - Submitted by AWC Member Larry F. |
