WTN: Dominio Buenavista Tempranillo Privilegio

[David M. Bueker]

• 2009 Bodega Dominio Buenavista / Veleta Tempranillo Privilegio - Spain, Andalucía, Vino de la Tierra Contraviesa Alpujarra (5/19/2020)
  Delicious combination of richness and structure, with ripe blackberry fruit leading the way. It’s still incredibly young eleven years after the vintage, with only hints of earthy and leathery tones coming through on the finish. Balanced for several more years of aging, and a fantastic value.

Wow David, differs from my impression of the 2010s. I bought a half-case of Veleta 2010: Tempranillo, Red Blend/Nolados, and Cab Sauv. Of the 3, the Tempranillo was best, followed by the Cab. But most of them were average at best. A few were meh....

Veleta cheeses, cured meats are another story. Very good IMHO. So I stick to those.

I am actually a big fan of the wines. Different strokes...

I do love the food products. The tuna is amazing.
