Enfield Wine Co. - Shake Ridge Ranch Tempranillo 2012 (1.5L) Costières-de-Nîmes Stefano produced his first vintagesDusty, leathery, spicy and filled with red fruit, it was about as good as this bottling has ever been. Still some tannin lurking around the edges, and with the strong fruit theres time in hand. This is at an inflection point, and further development will likely be more in the dusty, herbal, leather areas, adding further complexity to what is already an interesting wine.
