Tinto Figuero 2006 Reserva Tempranillo

Tinto Figuero 2006 Reserva Tempranillo

Mission Codename 70 years and 15 months

The first thing that you should know about today’s 92 point (Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate) wine is that it is powerful and extracted for a Tempranillo. Our entire tasting panel was delightfully surprised by this (so much so that our panelists reserved a few bottles for themselves). Very few wines from Tinto Figuero find their way into the United States and we are very proud to be the only online merchant in the country to have this very special wine.

Tinto Figuero has been farming grapes in the Ribera del Duero for the last 70 years. Over the decades, they’ve grown grapes for some of Spain’s most-recognized wineries. Today, they also craft their own wines under their Tinto Figuero label. The grapes that they farm are, on average, 50 years old.

Today’s 2006 Tinto Figuero Reserva Tempranillo is an incredible wine. It is big and bold with deep flavors and lovely aromatics. Wonderful, integrated tannins provide great structure and a plush grip at the edges of the palate. The finish is exceedingly long.

If you like lighter-bodied Tempranillo, this wine may not be for you. If you love richness and elegance and flavors that will inspire you to Tango, this is the wine for you.
