Tilde 2011 Vendimia Seleccionada

Tempranillo (Ribera del Duero)

Jet black in color, this wine has a tiny magenta rim. The nose is replete with sweet spices and decadently ripe cherries. The palate echoes the nose, then brings in an unexpected, leathery note. It’s becoming nonetheless, but it suggests—along with the modest finish—that this is a wine for early drinking, as do the soft acidity and papery tannins. It’s fine for a casual sip, best enjoyed now–2018.
