Segura Viudas 2001 “Mas D’Aranyo Riserva” Tempranillo

One of those rare $10 bottles of wine that can deliver some substance along with style. Ripe currant flavors edge into toasted chocolate and finely textured tannin support flavors of thyme and tobacco.

That’s the substance, but you still get the round & lush body that has become the signature style for many Spainish wines over the last few years.
