If you enjoy wines from California and are looking for Spanish wine with similar qualities, give this robust red wine a try. It comes from an old-vine parcel of Tempranillo grown in the middle of La Mancha on sandy soils. The climate is arid and very warm yet there's a stark difference in temperature between day and night, which is a great thing for wine freshness. Aged in new French oak. This, along with the density of fruit, makes this a full-bodied, oaky red wine for those craving a more flamboyant type of wine.

Tempranillo

A.k.a. Cencibel. Just about synonymous with Spanish wine, the red Tempranillo grape has now fully won over the hearts and minds of critics and amateur oenophiles all over the world. The best bottles are powerful and ageworthy, and are beginning to fetch prices you'd never have expected from Spanish wines just a few years ago. Tempranillo is often used in blends with Bordeaux grapes such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and has lately been grown with considerable success outside of Spain, in...
