Legaris (Crianza)


Name: Legaris
Variety: Crianza
Region: Ribera del Duero
Country: Spain
Year: 2003
Price: $8.95


Winery review: 90 points, Wine Spectator:  A silky texture carries plum, tobacco, coffee and mineral flavors over ripe tannins in this balanced red.  Berry and vanilla notes linger on the finish.  Drink now through 2012. -T.M.


My review:  Had a buttery, fruity scent to it.  Was only able to pick up blackberry while smelling.  VERY dry and tannic.  Tasted a bit earthy to me and had a fair amount of heat to it (in comparison to the previous 4 wines tasted).



I tasted this on its own without food.
