Tinto Figuero, Ribera del Duero DO (Spain) Tempranillo 2018

May 5, 2020

By Robert Whitley

 The “15” in the name indicates 15 months of barrel age for this exceptional Tempranillo.  Richly layered and complex, it exhibits a peppery note that complements the bright aromas of cherry and plum, along with subtle hints of fall baking spices.  Built for the long haul but impressive and enjoyable now.
