Tempranillo 2016
This is the first vintage in many years that we have highlighted Liberty Oaks Vineyard as a vineyard designated wine. It proves, once again, why Tempranillo is king of the Spanish reds! Incredible dark fruit aromas of black cherry, blackberry and dark chocolate, end with a tangy hints of dried cranberries and nutmeg. Rich, luscious, juicy dark fruit flavors of blackberry syrup and chocolate covered cherries finish with a lingering notes of mulling spices, cinnamon, and clove. It is weighty and mature with dusty tannins. This wine is drinkable now and will continue to mature and evolve in the bottle for many years. Liz suggests pairing this wine with venison or duck with a cherry red wine reduction sauce.
