Urbina Crianza 2015

Unashamedly classic in style, this predominantly American oak-aged Tempranillo marriesgrapes from Uruñuela and Cuzcurrita. Very much a cool climate style, it’s savoury andrefreshing, with pomegranate, tobacco leaf and coconut flavours. Ageing gracefully. Drink date: 2024-2027. Score – 92.
