Alvar de Dios Hernandez Aciano Vino de la Tierra de Castilla y Leon, Spain 2018 Chateau Fombrauge with aromas of black fruitA spectacular nose, with plenty of aromatic herbs, wild berries and flowers, with contained ripeness and great freshness. The palate has chalky minerality and a dry mouthfeel. The soils are very sandy, and phylloxera never attacked the vines in the village of El Pego. The wine is serious, delicious and has an austere mouthfeel, with those grainy, sandy tannins. This feels like a much more expensive wine.
