Notime, Navarra (Spain) Tempranillo 2008

Jan 6, 2010

By Michael Franz

 Fresh and juicy, this wine showcases the delicious flavors of Tempranillo without a lot of earthy or oaky notes.  That means that it is a bit short on complexity by comparison to bottlings that many consumers might know from Rioja, but that shortcoming as nicely compensated for by the purity and freshness of the fruit and the attractively low price.
