Details
The ‘Trio Varietales’ is a blend of Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon and Grenache. The end result is a delicious wine with plenty of dark fruit, the right amount of spice and a lovely silky finish.
Origin: Rioja, in central-northern Spain. Mainly Grown In: All over Spain, Portugal, Argentina, and McLaren Vale and NE Victoria in Australia. Key Facts: Imagine taking the classic variety Tempranillo and darkening the fruit spectrum and polishing off some of the rustic edges. Making it whip smart, tightening things up and making it into a really flashy young thing? That's essentially what these blends are - they have the soul of Tempranillo, but they set off on a different path, a path that is equally delicious, just a little bit different. Loads of spicy, berry-fruit muskiness tied up with mouth-filling tannins. Sometimes richer, sometimes lighter, always good drinking. Fun Fact: Tempranillo is as Spanish as bulls, tapas and siestas. But it's spreading its wings (horns?) these days and can be found in our own backyard.
