2007 Tempranillo

92 points - Exceptional, Beverage Testing Institute. Our Tempranillo wine is in honor of Dimitri Tchelistcheff. Dimitri is our long time mentor and valued contributor to our winemaking. He has a special feeling for Tempranillo and thought it would do well here. He suggested planting just an acre to compliment our other wines. Its very name means “early” from the Spanish word “temprano”. It is our first red variety to harvest each year.
