Tempranillo is Spain’s flagship red, valued for its deep colour, fine-grained tannins, and ability to balance ripe fruit with freshness in continental climates like Ribera del Duero. Naturally suited to oak maturation, it develops notes of vanilla, cocoa, tobacco, and savoury spice over time and is renowned for its excellent ageing potential.
