Tempranillo does so well in the vineyard that you can taste it in the finished wine. This wine has so much to offer in terms of both mouthfeel and flavor with a balance that provides just the right amount of acidity to bring everything together. It has great textured tannins that are not harsh and really add to the notes of leather and florals. Tempranillo is one of our most well received varietals.
