Abelis Carthago William Selection 2004 Tinta de Toro

This Tempranillo is labeled as a Tinta de Toro, and is in fact from Toro. The William has a nose that includes a mint/menthol component, maybe camphor, and it's a deep dark red. The mouth has dark fruit, earth, and is well balanced though the tannins are definitely present, with some spice. Good length. Nice legs. Around $35, and Jay Miller gave it a 90. Again, great wine, though there are better values in that point range with great flavor profiles. Tasted February 20, 2009
