Tasting - Veleta Tempranillo Rosado


Name: Veleta Tempranillo Rosado
Variety: Tempranillo
Region: Granada
Country: Spain
Year: 2010
Price: $3.95

Winery Review: Fresh in flavor and crisp in texture, this dry rosé offers berry, tart cherry and light herbal flavors, with firm acidity and a clean finish. Focused and juicy.

My Review: In comparison to the opening wine, this Tempranillo was delightful. The first sniff hinted at a rich berry quality, which definitely came out on the palate.The juiciness, particularly the raspberry flavor, was balanced enough by the wine's dryness and acidity to keep it from being too heavy for a rose.
