Campos de Viento Tempranillo 2014 (Spain)
Description
n attractive ripe cherry colour, of medium intensity, brilliant and clear, with violet touches around the edge indicating youth. The aromas are of fresh fruits, cranberries, blackberries and fresh strawberries. On the palate the wine is of a medium weight with subtle hints of licorice. Soft and round on the palate, the wine has the light grip of well-ripened tannins. Full-bodied and with a long-lasting aftertaste.
ermentation for 8 to 10 days in ‘Ganymede’ stainless steel tanks at 24 to 26ºC, with great colour and fruit flavour extraction. For the seonc year running we are now doing ‘reductive’ wine-making, meaning virtually no sulphur until the final bottling takes place, protecting the fruitiness of the wines. Malolactic fermentation also takes place in these tanks.
Overall 2014, a slightly drier and cooler vintage than recent years, particularly with cooler nights, leading to more aromatic grapes. Rainfall was good in the spring but virtually no more water fell until after the harvest, leading to excellent health. For the first time, this wine has been made exclusively with organically farmed grapes.

This is amazing bang for your buck. Smooth and medium bodied. Great everyday drinking. On my 5th or 6th case. Hard to come by in retail outlets and even then hovers around the $13 mark on sale! Always pick up a case or two when on sale.
