Valdelacierva Valdelamillo Tempranillo Crianza 2016 (750ml) Contra Costa

Valdelacierva Valdelamillo Tempranillo Crianza 2016 (750ml) Contra CostaThe wine has a cherry red colour with a ruby edge. Beautiful sweet nose of vanilla and toasted oak notes from the 12 months ageing in American oak. Ripe black cherry flavour mingles with coconut in this full bodied, lavishly oaked, fairly dry red wine. It has a rich, almost chewy texture, lots of fine grained tannins for grip and structure yet a smooth and velvety mouthfeel and potent fruit concentration that powers through the finish

fruity smells reminiscent of peach pulp

A tried-and-true crowd pleaser

Best decanted and paired with rich winter dishes from most cuisines
