Tempranillo is a black grape variety widely grown to make full-bodied red wines in its native Spain. The result is a powerful, intense wine, fresh yet silky, offering an explosion of fruity flavors such as ripe raspberry, blackberry and cherry. It boasts a complex nose, with spicy notes, among them mint, cloves and tobacco. Its finish is firm and persistent, with a refreshing acidity and touches of mocha. It’s ideal with sharp cheese, paté, barbeque meats, stuffing and poultry!
