Finca Torremilanos, Tinto "El Porron de Lara", Ribera del Duero, Spain, 2020
{biodynamic} 100% Tempranillo
PLUM & CHERRY, GENEROUS & FEISTY-FRESH
Positively risqué, this au naturel Tempranillo from our iconoclastic friends at Finca Torremilanos combines a frame of zesty tannin with outlandishly guzzlable purple fruit and a mischievously tangy element that one wouldn’t expect from the broad-shouldered reds typically emerging from Ribera del Duero. While it might not protect you from sunburn, this snappy elixir is magically summery without sacrificing substance. Ribera del-icious.
Serving Suggestion: Lamburgers w/ arugula, bacon, tomato, & garlic-lemon mayo. Empanadas w/ lentils, roasted portobellos, & corn.
