    Tempranillo

    Tempranillo is a native Spanish grape varietal primarily used in Rioja's production. Grown throughout the north of Spain, … Tempranillo is an early ripening grape. High altitudes and cool climates help keep the grapes acidity and make for more elegant wines with red fruit profiles. When young, plums and cherries shine through in Tempranillo wines. With age and oak, the fruit becomes more subdued. Notes of leather and tobacco leaves are more pronounced in more mature Tempranillo wines.

Tempranillo is also grown in many Australian wine regions including the King Valley, McLaren Vale, the Barossa Valley and in Margaret River, Western Australia. There are now over 200 Australian wineries making wine from this variety. Tempranillo vines prefer a cooler climates, where it is easier to retain acidity and tannin.

Its home is in Rioja in the north of Spain where it constitutes around 70% of most red blends. It is also grown in Ribera del Duero, Cencibel in La Mancha and Valdepenas and Ull de Llebre in Catalonia.
