Spain’s top red wine, made famous by Rioja, where wines are classified (in part) by how long they age in oak. What’s amazing, is a well-made Tempranillo ages for over 20 years.
Tempranillo is an easy to find and wildly diverse food-pairing wine that also happens to have a great flavour profile for its value.
Spanish Tempranillo delivers contrasting flavors of leather and cherries.
The finer the wine, the more balance there is between earth and fruit. The finish is typically smooth and lingers with the taste of tannin on both sides of your mouth.
