Mesta - Tempranillo

This 2020 Tempranillo hails from Ucles, Spain. The Mesta was a strong medieval alliance of shepherds in Castile, controlling sheep migration routes. The vineyard lies deep in Mesta territory, still crossed by migrating sheep herds. This unoaked wine is juicy, highlighting the traits of high - altitude tempranillo. Taste notes include red berries, rosemary, and a hint of liquorice, with a long - lasting dry finish. It pairs perfectly with tapas or complex pasta dishes.

To enjoy this wine, simply chill it slightly before opening. Pour it into a wine glass and let it breathe for a few minutes to enhance the aroma. You can drink it on its own, but it's best paired with tapas or complex pasta as mentioned. Keep the wine in a cool, dark place. Once opened, consume it within a few days and store it in the fridge with a cork. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
