Product Description
Details
The wine Tinto Figuero Reserva was formerly known as Tinto Figuero 15 Meses
This wine of Bodegas y Viñedos García Figuero is sourced from Tempranillo vineyards planted from 1965 to 1995.
Manually harvested and carefully transported to the cellar, the grapes were first put into stainless steel tanks and cold-macerated. After going through a spontaneous fermentation, this Spanish red wine was left in contact with its lees for several days to increase its creaminess and roundness.
Then this Reserva red wine from Ribera del Duero underwent malolactic fermentation and was aged for 16 months in new and 2nd year French oak barrels.
Finally, the wine Tinto Figuero Reserva 2019 was clarified with egg whites before being bottled.
We suggest that you decant this red wine from Ribera del Duero at least 1 hour before you drink it.
Additional Information
Additional Information
| Appearance | The red wine Tinto Figuero Reserva is deep purple with a reddish rim. |
|---|---|
| Nose | A bit reduced at the beginning, as this varietal Tempranillo opens it shows a great complexity, with notes of ripe black fruit, sweet spices and a dash of white pepper. Later, we perceive aromas of cocoa, liquorice, graphite, charcoal, balsam, menthol and resin, as well as some mineral undertones and notions of wet earth. |
| Palate | Bold and complex, this reserva red wine of Bodegas y Viñedos García Figuero has depth, character and potential for improvement. Pure suggestions of black fruit, spices, earth and balsam. Nuanced and powerful, with great tension, a fresh acidity and slightly untamed tannins that will mellow within a few years. Long, persistent, mineral finish. |
| Our personal opinion | The wine Tinto Figuero Reserva 2019 is complex, age-worthy and elegant. |
