This is a selection from our latest delivery from the WSJ Wine Club.
A nice, full-bodied spanish wine that went well with our low-carb shrimp and walnut dinner. Usually you'd drink this with a thick rib-eye, marbled with veins of delicous fat, but it performed just as well with our farm-raised shimp friends.
From Wikipedia:
Tempranillo wines can be consumed young, but the most expensive ones are aged for several years in oak barrels.
Well....clearly this 09 swill didn't spend its infancy in a snuggly crib of oak, but it maintained a precocious presence.
