Country: US / Estate
Variety: Tempranillo Oregon
Winery: Zenith / Eola-Amity Hills
Tempranillo has become a mainstay red grape in southern Oregon, but it’s a rarity further north. Light toasty fruit flavors suggest tart raspberry with a hint of wood from 14 months in 20% new American oak barrels. The low alcohol and high acid suggest that this wine should be consumed over the next two or three years.
