Norte Sur Tempranillo Cabernet Sauvignon Dominio De Punctum 2019 Norte Sur Tempranillo Cabernet Sauvignon Dominio de Punctum 2019 Region The great plain of La Mancha, to the south of Madrid and east of Toledo, represents the largest viticultural area of Spain. The climate is arid, extreme in both summer and winter, tempered by strong prevailing winds. The widely planted white Arien grape variety is slowly losing favour to Tempranillo, Shiraz and Garnacha and the old wineries are giving way to gleaming modern facilities heralding a revolution for the region`s winemaking. Producer Dominio de Punctum is situated in the town of Las Pedroneras at the north end of La Mancha. It was founded in 2005 and run by the Fernandez family, the estate currently includes over 150 hectares of vineyards. The winery is located adjacent to the vineyards allowing to keep the maximum quality in the production of the whites, reds, young and aged wines. Since the beginning they have focused on organic and biodynamic production. Tasting Notes This organic blend of Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon is a bright cherry red in colour with aromas of red berries and cherries on the nose. The palate is smooth with crunchy red fruits and a refreshing acidity. Soft tannins add structure to the wine which finishes long and fruity. Food Ideal with barbequed meats and saussages.

  • Structure in Wine Steiia Thiast
    Structure in Wine steiia thiAst What is Structure? • So what is this thing, structure? It*s the sense you have that the wine has a well-established form,I think ofit as the architecture ofthe wine. A wine with a great structure will often remind me ofthe outlines of a cathedral, or the veins in a leaf...it supports, and balances the fiuit characteristics ofthe wine. The French often describe structure as the skeleton ofthe wine, as opposed to its flavor which they describe as the flesh. • Where does structure come firom? In white wines, it usually comes from alcohol or acidity; in red wines, it comes from a combination of acidity and tannin, a component in the grapes' skins and seeds. Thus, wines with a lot of tannin (like cabernet) also have a lot of structure. Beaujolais is made from gamay which does not have much tannin. As a result, Beaujolais can lack structure; it feels soft, flat or simple in the mouth (though its flavors can certainly still be attractive). • While structure is hard to articulate, you can easily taste or sense it —^and the lack of it. • Understanding structure is critical to understanding any ofthe ''powerful" red varieties: cabernet sauvignon, merlot, syrah, nebbiolo, tempranillo, and malbec, to name a few. I just don't think you can understand these wines unless you understand structure, and how it frames and focuses the powerful rush of fruit. It adds freshness, and a "lightness" to the density ofripe fiuit. Structure matters when pairing wine and food. Foods with a lot of structure themselves— like a meaty, thick steak-need wines with commensurate structure (like cabernet), or the food experience can dwarfthe wine experience.

  • Spartico Tempranillo/Cabernet Organic Wine
    Spartico Tempranillo/Cabernet Organic Wine Winemakers: Bodegas Iranzo Appellation: D.O. Utiel Requena (Valencia) Location: Valencia Varietal(s): 50% Tempranillo 50% Cabernet Sauvignon Ageing: No oak ageing - Best when consumed young. Analytical Data: Alc. 14.5.% by Vol. · Res. Sugar 1.44 g/l · Acidity: 5.11 g/l Serve at: 59º F-63º F UPC: 1-85554 00054-3 Vineyard: All of the production is obtained from the Estate FINCA CAÑADA HONDA. The production area includes lime soils which are ideal for obtaining colorful wines. Also the sand textures of these lime soils benefit the ripening of the grapes. The vineyard is situated 800 – 850 meters above sea level with an N / SE orientation resulting in maximum sunlight exposure. Vinification: The wine making process without the use of sulfur means that the hygienic conditions have to been extreme during harvest season. The grapes are harvested solely by hand in small crates. Every effort is made to avoid breakage and bacteria attacks. The wine deposits are filled very briefly so as not to delay the delicate fermentation process. All elements that come in contact with this no sulfite added wine are subject to the most extreme hygienically conditions. Terroir: Mix of sandy and clay soils, with the presence of stones. Training system: The vines are guided by the Gullot doble system, although the vines are not held. This system enhances the airing of the vines, avoids the emergence of cliptogamic diseases. Also, a shading cover of the vegetation avoids the direct impact of the sun on the vines. Tasting Notes: Aromas of strawberry, stewed plum, vanilla custard, and baking spice with a bright, dry light-to-medium body and an interesting, medium-long , prune, and bittersweet chocolate finish with well-integrated tannins.

  • La Historia Del Vino, Ligada Al Condado De Huelva, La
    LA HISTORIA DEL VINO, LIGADA AL CONDADO DE HUELVA, LA CULTURA DE LA VID. Por la afinidad existente entre la vid y el hombre, ningún cultivo ha sellado con tan acusada personalidad a las tierras que le fueron propias, a los hombres y mujeres que a ella se entregaron, como el cultivo de la vid. Pintura mural egipcia del siglo XV ac, tumba de Nakht, Tebas La vid portadora de uvas, vitis vinífera, tiene un origen local impreciso, se atribuye al Cáucaso Meridional, entre Turquía, Armenia e Irán. En cualquier caso está científicamente demostrada la presencia de plantas cercanas al género botánico VITIS, como antepasadas de las actuales viníferas, en el occidente europeo durante el periodo micénico en la Era Terciaria, bajo la forma praevinífera; de ella, en el transcurso de los siglos, han ido evolucionando las distintas variedades afincadas en las diferentes zonas vitícolas. La historia de la viña se encuentra así, desde la más remota antigüedad, ligada a la de la mitología oriental. El dato más vetusto de que disponemos para pensar en el cultivo de la vid, en nuestra provincia, se remonta hacia los finales del tercer milenio en Mazagón, concretamente en "la laguna de Las Madres". Ello según los estudios realizados por expertos paleobotánicos, sobre la base de la gran concentración de polen detectada. Es a partir de estos estudios y dado el desacuerdo existente entre los investigadores sobre la introducción de la vitis vinífera en nuestra provincia, cuando deberíamos plantearnos el origen de nuestra viticultura, enlazando con la presencia fenicia donde se posee una mayor información.

Our Viña San Juan exhibits the maximum expression from three grape varieties: Merlot, Syrah and Tempranillo. The resulting coupage is a real pleasure to our senses: sight, smell and taste. This is a perfect wine to enjoy with a wide range of Spanish gastronomic concepts. Region In the former kingdom of Castilla-La Mancha in central Spain, we can find the largest vine-growing area in the world with an endless expanse of 300,000 hectares of vineyard. It is also the stomping ground of Miguel de Cervantes’s famous novel, Don Quixote. The huge area covered by this Denominación de Origen borders Valencia and Murcia to the East, and Extremadura to the West, Andalusia to the South and Madrid to the North-West. Wine making began here in Roman times and was widespread during the middle ages. The versatility of this land has allowed for the introduction of a wide variety of international varieties of grape. VARIETY STYLE Merlot, Syrah and Tempranillo. Still wine ALCOHOL GRADUATION SERVING TEMPERATURE 13.5% Between 12-14 ºC Tasting Notes Dark red with generous aromas of red fruits, and a touch of pepper, spices and mocha.

  • Napa Valley Tempranillo Vineyard
    2017 NAPA VALLEY TEMPRANILLO A passion project of Rolando’s, our Tempranillo is a tribute to the Tempranillo wines you often partake of on a local’s table in the Rioja region of Spain. Known as their noble grape it has a similar taste profile to both Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon. STARTING IN THE VINEYARD Record-breaking winter rainfall kicked off the season, filling the water table to capacity and replenishing soils. A mild spring brought bud break at the normal time, and vintners reported small berries with excellent color. A hot summer culminated in a Labor Day weekend heat wave, where the grapes endured the heat and once cooler weather arrived, fruit was able to mature at a gradual pace. At harvest, the fruit came in with excellent color, pronounced flavors and high quality across varieties. TO THE CELLAR Rolando treats this wine just like Cabernet in the cellar. As much tannin and structure as possible is extracted before the wine is aged for 21 months to refine the texture and balance the body. IN YOUR GLASS This wine radiates a dark black cherry-red hue. Robust scents of Vintage 2017 cassis, tobacco, fennel, and white pepper signal the complexity ahead. On the palate, chewy, well-structured tannins frame intense Varietal Tempranillo flavors of cherry cordial, espresso, cured olive, with an undercurrent Appellation Napa Valley of dark cocoa and a fine Cohiba. Vineyard Rancho Chimiles ON YOUR Oak 65% new French TABLE Aging 21 months The bold flavors of this wine can stand up to big, meaty dishes. Try with Grilled Skirt Steak Tacos topped with Charred Tomato Salsa.
