2023 | Bodegas Emilio Moro 'Malleolus' | Ribera del Duero Hungary This is a great TalbotThe 2023 Malleolus is another 100% Tempranillo, with a reductive nose. It has generous upfront oak and complex tannins, very ripe in full bodied layers of blackberry and blueberry that taste nearly of jam. Secondary characteristics of spice, balsamic, and tobacco linger on the dense finish. 92 Pts Jeb Dunnuck
