Wine EnthusiastThis inky violet-red wine offers aromas of black cherry, white chocolate and baking spices. Chewy tannins coat the tongue, while flavors of cherry, black currant, dark chocolate, caramel and juniper berry swirl towards a remarkably bright finish.

James SucklingFine balsamic complexity with a touch of cedar, espresso and violets to the blackberries. Tannins are tight but polished on the full-bodied palate, showing refined structure and excellent length in the finish. Impressive stature of fruit, too.
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.
