2019 / Red
2019 RESERVE TEMPRANILLO
The historic Spanish variety, Tempranillo has found a successful home in the vineyards of Paso Robles. Like its home in the Rioja and Ribera del Duero regions of Spain, Paso Robles offers hot summer days, cool nights and little rainfall. Our 2019 Reserve Tempranillo tempts you with beautifully layered fruit, exotic spice and floral highlights, and a long complex finish with firm tannins. This wine will definitely gain further complexity and balance with a few years in the cellar. It never fails to amaze with its affinity toward a wide variety of foods. ¡Que aproveche!

Tasting notes
Appearance: Clear and bright with a deep ruby/purple core and black secondary color, lighter at the rim with slow-forming, moderately stained tears on the glass.
Aroma: Aromatic with dried strawberry, black and red cherry, dusty leather, exotic wood, vanilla, and subtle minty notes.
Palate: Full-bodied, dry, and youthful with a red and black fruit mix on entry, exotic wood and spice along with oak and vanilla toward the midpalate, and notes of leather and firm mouth-filling tannins on the midpalate. The finish Is long with sustained fruit, barrel spice, oak, and lingering tannins with fresh acidity.
Food pairings
