James SucklingCurrant, blackberry and some plum undertones, as well as floral and burnt-orange notes. Linear and firm on the palate with a medium to full body and a polished, tannic finish. Very clean and refined texture, yet displaying strength at the same time. Drink or hold.

Wine EnthusiastA supple nose is loaded with ripe black-fruit aromas that accurately reflect a warm vintage. A thick palate is tannic and on the heavy side, again reflective of the year. Blackberry, plum and toast flavors remain on stage through a dry finish with simmering tannins. Drink through 2028.
Tempranillo is a red wine grape variety originating from Spain and is widely planted across the country. It is particularly prominent in regions like Rioja and Ribera del Duero. Tempranillo wines are known for their versatility and the ability to showcase a wide range of flavors, including red berries, leather, tobacco, and vanilla. The grape imparts wines with moderate acidity and tannins, making them approachable yet capable of aging gracefully. Tempranillo is often blended with other grape varieties, and its expression can vary depending on the winemaking techniques and the region in which it is grown. Overall, Tempranillo wines are celebrated for their balance, complexity, and the ability to complement a variety of cuisines.
