Description
Discover the bold essence of Spain's Castilla y León region through PENINSULA APOSTATA TEMPRANILLO, a pure expression of Tempranillo from vines that have stood the test of time. Produced by Península Vinicultores, this red wine captures the rugged terroir in every pour, drawing solely from these venerable plants to deliver an authentic taste of tradition.
Pour it out and watch as a dense dark red hue emerges, centered by a deep black core that clings to the glass with evident viscosity, hinting at the richness within. Lift your glass to reveal intense aromas where ripe blackberries mingle with juicy plums and warm cherry pie, laced with subtle vanilla, sweet spices, and faint whispers of smoke that intrigue the senses.
On the palate, it unfolds with full body and tannins that provide firm structure, weaving flavors of dark fruit alongside sharp black pepper and a gentle oak influence. The experience lingers through a long, harmonious finish, where those distinctive aromas echo back, leaving a memorable impression.
Ideal for elevating hearty meals, this Tempranillo shines alongside braised veal or a robust beef stew simmered with porcini mushrooms in port wine sauce. It complements lamb drizzled in rosemary jus just as well, and pairs seamlessly with fully ripe hard cheeses that match its intensity. For the best reveal of its layers, chill slightly to 16–18°C before serving.
At 14.50% ABV and in a standard 750 ml bottle, PENINSULA APOSTATA TEMPRANILLO offers a dry profile (sweetness level 01) that's versatile yet commanding. Whether you're stocking your cellar or seeking a standout red for tonight's dinner, this Spanish gem from old vines promises depth and character that rewards every sip. Let it transport you to the sun-drenched vineyards of Castilla y León, where each bottle tells a story of resilience and flavor.
