SKU: JERICTEM22
Unlike most red wines, this joven style of tempranillo is pressed off skins midway through fermentation. This early pressing prevents the extraction of bold and harsh tannins that are typical to tempranillo from the skins into the wine, resulting in a plush, juicy, and endlessly drinkable style of red wine. A short time maturing in seasoned French oak, before early release preserves the fresh and intensely red-fruited character of this wine.

”A vibrant, refreshing tempranillo styled nearly in the joven zone, frisky red berry fruitiness a calling card with turned earth, dried leaf characters, pepper, cola and charry spices. It's got a good slip of juiciness in texture, shaped well with a smudge of twiggy tannins. Relatively simple in its offering but a delight to drink, effortless and totally charming. You could chill this down and not offend anyone too.”
