Tempranillo 2009

Can every vintage be a home run? So it seems when you combine Tempranillo and the Lodi Appellation. Purple-black in color, with crimson hues, our Tempranillo displays its adaptability to the new world. It exhibits rich aromas of ripe blackberry, strawberry jam and creamy cocoa ending with a bright orange zest. Swirling in the mouth, it tickles the palate with fruity flavors of plum and dark Burlat cherries, ending with smooth silky tannins and a hint of minerality…have you ever licked a piece of granite?  As in the traditional style of the Rioja, it is blended with our highly prized Graciano. This wine will continue to age gracefully.
