Tinto Figuero, Ribera del Duero DO (Spain) 2015

May 20, 2018

By Robert Whitley

This dark, inky red from Spain’s Ribera del Duero is as dense and rich as it looks. The Vina Viejas (Old Vines) are more than 60 years old, planted in a family owned vineyard in La Horra. Complex layers of blackberry and raspberry aroma are wrapped in toasty oak, lending a prominent spice note to the finished wine. With its muscular structure and elegant balance, this is a wine that will prosper from another eight to ten years in a temperature-controlled cellar.
