Tempranillo is a renowned red grape variety from Spain, celebrated for its role in the country's most prestigious wines, especially from regions like Rioja and Ribera del Duero. Named from the Spanish word "temprano," meaning "early," it ripens earlier than most varieties, thriving in both cooler and warmer climates.
Join us as Edward guides us through a tasting of six Tempranillo wines. He’ll describe the traditional characteristics, such as plum, cherry, and tobacco, and explain the impact each wine region has on the wine. You'll leave this Tempranillo-focused class with a deeper understanding of this grape and be ready to impress your friends at your next wine gathering. Light shared appetizers will be served throughout the class to complement the tasting.
