2018 Tempranillo

Tempranillo, Spain’s #1 wine grape, is fresh and fruity when young and becomes leathery and more savory with oak and age.  Trella’s gold medal award-winning tempranillo is notable for smooth earthy tannins with dark cherry and tobacco, and a deliciously long finish.  A real Umpqua Valley treasure.
