Tasting - 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 2013.  –T.M

My review:  This wine was an excellent experience.  The wine had a smokey red color when poured into the glass.  Then on the nose there were aromas of fruit, plum and apple.  The wine was rather dry and acidic, but had some great flavors.  The main flavor that came through was a smokey wood.  It was a good wine and I would recommend it.  This would be great with any food.

I tasted this on its own with no food.
