The youngest, entry-level Spanish red wine of Bodegas y Viñedos García Figuero, Tinto Figuero 4 Meses is produced in Ribera del Duero.
It is made from relatively young, 15 to 25-year-old Tempranillo vines, located in the town of La Horra.
Carefully harvested, first the grapes were cold macerated for 2 to 3 days. After that, this red wine from Ribera del Duero was spontaneously fermented in stainless steel tanks.
Finally, Tinto Figuero 4 Meses 2018 completed malolactic fermentation and was aged for 4 months in new and 2nd year American (75%) and French (25%) oak barrels.
Drink until 2022.

Nose | Fresh and enticing aromas of wild berries, red fruit, toast and balsam, typical of a varietal Tempranillo from Ribera del Duero, underpinned by some seductive mineral undertones. |
Palate | Fresh and pleasant, this young red wine by the García Figuero winery shows a good balance between the freshness, the brief period in oak and the fruit. Notes of red berries, rosy pepper and liquorice. Mild tannins and a long, fruity finish. |
Our personal opinion | Light and drinkable, Tinto Figuero 4 Meses 2018 pairs well with rice and white meat dishes. |
