Fruit (cherries, black plums, ripe blackberries) and oak (clove, pepper, vanilla, and coconut), enriched by the complex aromas developed during bottle ageing. Very attractive on the palate, with ripe fruit and spices, tobacco, and toasted oak. Elegant and soft tannins, middle weight, long, and complex finish. Delicious with red meat, grill, and roasts, game, mature, and blue cheeses.

Notes of ripe berries, sweet spices and cocoa with some earthy character to it. Medium- to full-bodied with polished tannins and a sleek texture. Firm and stalky with notes of cedar and walnut to it.
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.
