Tempranillo wines - harmony of contrasts

The inhabitants of the Iberian Peninsula are a proud people. Proud of culture, proud of cocina, proud of their homeland. This is not Spain, these are small regional villages and rural areas. With different languages and peculiarities. One thing unites them all: the love of Tempranillo. Spain's most popular grape variety can be found everywhere, and is known by a different name everywhere. This damages the worldwide reputation of the Tempranillo. At the same time, Tempranillo red wine has every right to be one of the most famous red wines in the world.

Purple early - Tempranillo taste from the kingdom of Spain

The almost black berry of Tempranillo is quite small and early ripening. Hence the name Tempranillo:  "Little Early". The character of the red wine shines with its powerful and fruity bouquet of blackberry, plum, currant, black cherry, raspberry and violet. Full-bodied, barrel-agedTempranillo wines enrich the nose with nuances of tobacco, leather and wood. The elegant body combines a multi-faceted, soft structure with mild tannins and moderate acidity. With an alcohol content of circa 11-13% by volume, Tempranillo belongs to the moderate category. Despite the possible aging potential of this long-lived red wine, Tempranillo is predominantly drunk young.

Tempranillo origin - A Spanish affair

Tempranillo is an indigenous grape variety from Spain, probably from the Rioja region. The Benedicto and Albillo Mayor grapes, native to this region, are known to be the parents. Probably first cultivated by monks in Rioja, the grape variety is now found throughout Spain. Tempranillo vines are cultivated on a total of more than 110,000 hectares of vineyards - more area than is devoted to the entire winegrowing industry in Germany. The grape grows and thrives in both cold and warm regions, demonstrating great adaptability and perseverance. In La Rioja Tempranillo is the main variety, as well as in Ribera del Duero. Furthermore, in the regions of Penedès, La Mancha and Navarra there are large populations of the dark grape. In Portugal, the Tempranillo, here called Tinta de Roriz, is also found in many places. Many winemaking nations are experimenting with the grape, including France, Greece, Italy, Argentina and Chile. Throughout the world, the vivacious grape is grown on approximately 230,000 hectares. However, the quality of Spanish Tempranillo red wines is unmatched.

In Spain alone, many styles of red wine differ. Tempranillo is often interpreted as a component in cuvées. Popular blends are formed with Garnacha, Cabernet Sauvignon, Mazuelo, Pinot Noir and the Monastrell. In the DOC Rioja, this results in excellent light and fruity Rioja red wines. In the Ribera del Duero region, the "Tinta del Pais" is vinified into a full and elegant wine. The DO Toro, with the Tinta de Toro, is known for single-varietal and particularly powerful Tempranillos.
