La Legua 1998 Reserva Tempranillo (Cigales)
- $19
From a region on the rise, this is nice Tempranillo, made in a lighter, food-friendly style. Which doesn’t mean it’s weak. On the contrary, the wine has good concentration and purity to go with fresh acids and an approachable texture. The flavors are of plum, cherry and licorice, while the finish is tight and comes in a couple of layers. Well made and easy to drink.

The aromas are a bit too prickly and pickled to call the nose clean, and thus the wine never really achieves solid footing. The raspberry and strawberry fruit is there, but it’s marred by sharp, pickled accents, which ultimately don’t work in its favor. The feel is nice, as the acidity and tannins are proper. But with too much funk to the nose and palate, it misses…
