Tempranillo

Tempranillo Wine Details
Price: $34.95 per bottle

Description: Never before released from Ponte is our new Tempranillo red wine. Native to Spain, the Tempranillo grape is the main varietal used to make Rioja, the base of traditional Sangria. Its name comes from the Spanish word temprano (“early”) which refers to the fact that the grape ripens several weeks earlier than most Spanish red grapes. Ponte’s Tempranillo is deep ruby in color with an enticing aroma of red berries, vanilla and herbs. It is medium-bodied and a great choice to serve with spicy food.
