Tinto Figuero Roble 4 Months in Barrel 2005
Tinto Figuero Roble 4 Months in Barrel 2005Figuero’s Four Months In Barrel has an intense deep crimson color on a clean, bright background, attesting to
the wine’s youth. The initial aromas are dominated by new oak, with hints of toast on a spicy background. Ripe
blackberries, raspberries and cranberries lurk just beneath the wood, and move through to the palate, which also shows moderate acidity, sweet tannins and the characteristically velvety texture of the Tempranillo grape.
This rounded wine combines smoothness, elegance and structure, down to a lingering finish.

After being and-harvested and undergoing cluster selection in the vineyards, the grapes are destemmed and go through gravity-controlled tanks, with five to six days maceration prior to fermentation.
