This is a Tempranillo from the Rioja region in Spain. We have really been digging Rioja wines recently (even though not all our tastings have made it into real justagrape reviews!), so I wanted to give this one a shot when I saw it on the shelf. |

This is an organic Tempranillo from Spain. I hadn’t browsed the wine isle at T.J.’s in a while and was intrigued to find an organic Tempranillo from Spain there. There is also a Cabernet from Albero that we want to review as well. Jason has some more insights as to the origin of this wine and a review as well. Overall we were pleased with this $6 wine and would buy it again. |

I picked this wine up because I was having blackened salmon for dinner. I figured a nice Tempranillo would go great with this spicy fish dish. The wine is actually a blend of Tempranillo and Shiraz. The label even recommended that it be served with spicy fish dishes. The label also informed me that I would be tasting intense black fruit flavors and hints of vanilla and spice. Unfortunately, I did not taste any of these things. The wine was quite bland but it did hold up well to the spicy fish. In fact, the only reason it got 1.5 trophies instead of 1 was because it did hold up to the dinner. The only way I would recommend this wine would be with a meal that was quite hearty, spicy and flavorful. On its own the flavors were boring and muddled. |

This wine is a Tempranillo from the Ribera del Duero region of Spain. Tempranillo in this region is known as Tinta Fina. This wine has already aged for 5 years and will age very nicely for another 5. |

This wine is a Tempranillo from the Rioja region of Spain. We explained a little about what a Rioja was in a previous review on Marques De Riscal The bottle suggests opening it several hours prior to drinking and we would agree. We found that with the use of a decanter that an hour was all it took to be ready. Decanting really smoothed out the wine and added a wonderful texture. This wine has received many accolades from other reviewers and being that the price was only $10.00 we would agree with them. |

This wine is a Tempranillo from Spain. Tempranillo is the main grape for much of Spain. The primary regions where the grape is grown are Rioja and Ribera Del Duero. Tempranillo’s can be very similar in many ways to Pinot Noir as is the case with this particular bottle. |

This wine is a Tempranillo from the Rioja Region of Spain. The Rioja region is in Northern Spain and known for producing outstanding grapes. The region was granted Denomination of origin status in 1926 and in 1991 became a qualified denomination of origin. This is important because it means that it is a protected region and only wine made from grapes produced here can be called rioja wines. |
