Description
Tempranillo is Spain's signature grape, and we have hunted far and wide for a version that delivers all of that lovely seductive soft fruit and gentle oak that we have come to know and love. Hacienda Albae's Tempranillo has been aged in small oak barrels for 6 months and has everything we were looking for.
Tasting Notes
Rather like a young, gently oaky Rioja, this Tempranillo shows a very easy-going strawberry and vanilla character - smooth and voluptuous.
Superb with grilled food - especially lamb chops - but equally worth trying with tomato-based dishes.
