The 2012 Tintoralba Higueruela (not the easiest to pronounce, chaps!) comes from 80- and 90- year old-vines in the titular parcel. The nose is a little feral at first, but calms down to offer scents of fresh prune, raising and fig. The palate is nicely controlled, with a keen citric thread cutting through the dark cherry and boysenberry fruit. It is well-balanced, simple and quite delicious. Just give it a little time to calm down after pouring. Drink now-2015.
