Description
Up until the 17th century Tempranillo type vines remained confined to mainland Spain, where they were best suited to the slightly cooler climate of the Northern Provinces. Here the regions of La Rioja (Spain) and Valdepenas historically made them their most important variety and they still make up the majority grape of their finest blends.
Food Pairing: Tempranillo wines are one of the most food friendly wines around. They offer versatility and value – without forsaking flavour and lift. Consider pairing them with their hometown favorites – tapas, pork grilled or roasted entrees.
