Wine Details
Price:
$25.00 per bottle
Description:
Tempranillo is the noble grape of Spain. It is the predominant varietal in the wines from the famous Rioja region. In 1998 two acres of Tempranillo were planted on an isolated knoll in the southern part of the Truchard Estate Vineyard. Tempranillo makes a unique, spicy wine, with deep purple color, lush texture, and firm acidity. It is a wonderful food wine. The 2001 Tempranillo has a complex nose of cherry, red currants, and plum; highlighted with tea and cedar. The mouth is rich: filled with ripe flavors of cassis, cranberry, and sweet vanilla. Chalky tannins focus the palate and give the wine a lingering finish of fruit and spice.
