Carl's Corner - Tempranillo Grape Variety, Neighbors, and Blending Partners

In anticipation of the upcoming Taste of Texas: Tempranillo Showdown at the Texas Wine Collective Event Center on Sunday, 19-May-2024, this post offers information on the Tempranillo grape variety and some of its neighbors and blending partners. Tempranillo is the fourth most widely planted red wine grape in the world and is most famous for making fine red wines in the Rioja, Ribera del Duero, and Toro regions of Spain. It is also one of the key grapes grown in the Douro region of Portugal and used in production of Port wines and, these days, many dry red table wines. It is believed that Phoenicians introduced wine grapes to Spain, so the Tempranillo that originated in Spain may well be related to ancient Phoenician species from Lebanon in the Middle East.  Continue »
