Zumaya Ribera Del Duero Tempranillo...Say that five times fast. Picked up this bottle on a Costco treasure hunt a few weeks back for $8 or $9. I was pretty sure Tempranillo was from Spain, but the regional map of Ribera Del Duero on the bottle didn't confirm (hey, i'm still a wine novice). Google confirmed it.
The Zumaya gets a 5/10 on the taste scale. My wife certainly liked it more than I did. Strong, very acidic. Seems like my lips, tongue, and teeth will be purple after a 1/2 glass. We're convinced we smell tobacco and taste blackberries. The wife would re-purchase. I would pass.
P.S. I'm smarter than a 5th Grader because I knew Chuck Yeager was the first to exceed the speed of sound in an airplane. Million dollar question my arse. Or maybe I'm just that smart...or maybe it's Maybelline.
