fantastic light bodied chilled tempranilllo - it’s fruity with notes of strawberry and cherry, slightly nutty. it’s got some nice residue that adds some texture but not quite funky, more creates a minerality to it. other than that, pretty clean, no tannins, not very acidic either. it was paired with prawns and fried shrimp.

Young Tempranillo.
There’s a lot of dirt going on here , both pos. & neg.
N: Musky Strawberries, dirt, reticent.
Supposedly a rather short maceration before being put up in used barriques.
P: Mashed up red fruits, no tannins, like dirty feet. Nice on a hot night w a bit of a chill. No SO2
I keep try Jose Pastór selections and I don’t think we get along.
Addendum: Much better day two after refrig w rubberized stopper. Still not much on the nose, but the palate has rounded”up” into something nice.
