Have you tried a Tempranillo lately, or are you sticking with your usual Syrah, red wine blend,, or playing it safe with Cabernet Sauvignon?
I’d like to suggest you venture out of your comfort zone and try some Washington Tempranillo this autumn!
This medium bodied Spanish red wine with medium tannins, plus dark fruit and tobacco flavors is perfect for chilly autumn nights.
Take a look at what WineFolly has to say about Tempranillo, and learn more about Tempranillo over at Wine Spectator too.
It’s Taco Tuesday today, and I’m opening my 2017 Beaumont Cellars Tempranillo!
You might also pair Tempranillo with pork and beef dishes. It pairs best with Spanish dishes, of course. As a vegetarian, I pair it with my fake meat tacos, bean burritos, roasted vegetables, and hearty lentil soup.
We have SO many delicious Tempranillos available in Woodinville. Try the Tempranillo at Cascade Cliffs, Castillo de Feliciana, Cave B Estate Winery, Maryhill Winery, Michael Florentino Cellars, Otis Kenyon, Pomum Cellars, Sol Stone Winery, and Zerba Cellars.
If you can’t make it to these tasting rooms, you can always stop by Haggen in Woodinville. This supermarket’s wine steward does an excellent job of stocking local Woodinville and Washington wines!
Happy Tempranillo Tuesday,
-Carrie
