2017 Colorado Tempranillo | (Talbott Vineyard)

$34.00

The new vintage showcases everything we love about Tempranillo grapes. Full on flavor yet pure, this wine remains easy drinking and fresh. Aromatically, it leaps from the glass with notes of black cherry and ripe plum. There’s a subtle minerality on the finish, which is an interesting contrast to the fruit character.

Description

As always, we handled these grapes with care; letting them ferment naturally on their own yeasts, and without the addition of sulfites or other additives. This natural winemaking let’s the true flavors from the grapes and vineyard shine through.

You might also notice the intriguing acidity and brightness to the wine. This comes from the cooling influence of the Colorado river, which forces the grape bunches to stay tight and clustered at night. This adds a complexity to the tannin and acidity structure, making it a great wine to pair with food. We recommend trying it with anything on the grill or even our new Chicken Cacciatore dish.
