Tasting - Finca del Castillo

Tasting - Finca del Castillo



Name: Finca del Castillo

Variety: Tempranillo

Region: La Mancha

Country: Spain

Year: 2011

Price: $4.95

Review: Rooty, spicy and baked on the nose, with aromas that lean towards raisin. The palate is more gritty and acidic, with raisin, cola, and spic flavors. Darkens up on the finish, which is long and peppery, with adequate juiciness and a final note of tomato.

My Review:  This wine most definitely resembled the taste of raisins  The finishing palate was strong and peppery. This was undesirable and unpleasant. The peppery taste was overwhelming. Don't buy this wine.
