Known by many names (see below), the Tempranillo grape has had a long history and impact in Europe – especially in Spain. Today this black grape is being grown in regions all over the world. The name “Tempranillo” stems from the Spanish word Temprano meaning early. The grape ripens several weeks earlier than many other traditional varieties. It often has a rather neutral profile and is thus typically blended with other grapes such as grenache or carignan. However, in some places it expresses more fruit qualities such as plum, berries and aromas of tobacco and leather. They can make exquisitely complex red wines. Join us as we explore the world of Tempranillos and experience what the grape has to offer.
