Fandango Tempranillo 2003 – Bodegas Solano Requena, Spain
100% Selected Tempranillo direct from dry land vineyards (not watered artificially).
"Shining cherry color with a slight mulberry border. The nose is fruity and fresh, detecting a touch of red fruit and a hint of licorice. Good body, pleasant and silky, with an excellent passage over the palate."
This wine is a bargain. I liked it so much I bought nearly a case! It goes great w/ pizza or barbequed pork ribs!!
Available at The Wine Merchant or other fine wine stores in your area (hopefully!).
Cheers….
I think I must be ready to begin drinking wine again. Reading your tasting notes has made me feel like a glass of wine.
Hi Barbara,
Glad you liked the tasting notes… they were from the winery.
Your first glass of wine is on me!
Hi Bruno,
Thanks for the tip. I just discovered tempranillos myself; I like that they’re in my price range and are so tasty! I’ll have to look for this brand around Champaign.
Cheers, Lisa
Lisa – I think you will enjoy this wine! It was nice meeting you and your husband at the food blogging event.
