Varietal - Tempranillo Blend

A Wine

Bodega del Romero Tempranillo Blend -2000 (WE-100962)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Fairly green, a bit oxidized and old smelling. The palate is short and choppy, with hard leftover tannins and dry, herbal fruit flavors that push up against vegetal. Sweetness re-enters the picture on the finish, but overall this is too dried up and strained to rate higher. 1 Note

Marqués de Murrieta Tempranillo Blend -2000 (WE-44178)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

This wine shows that old dogs can be taught new tricks. Murrieta is about as traditional as they come in Rioja yet Dalmau is ultra modern. The nose is a smooth mix of plum, raspberry and tobacco, while the sizable palate pushes oak-backed berry fruit. Runs racy but not particularly aggressive. Long and satisfying on the finish. 1 Note

Pedrosa Tempranillo Blend -2006 (WE-112037)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Rooty, tough aromas are brambly, while the palate is narrow in feel, drying and tastes of herbal raspberry and cherry. Quite snappy and a little sharp, with a quick finish of red fruit, tomato and zest. Could improve with aging, but at this point the wine, while solid, seems lacking in stuffing. 1 Note

Pedrosa Tempranillo Blend -2004 (WE-112039)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Earthy and crusty at first, with smoked meat, black fruit and dryness to the nose. The palate is well formed and proper, with dry raspberry and mild chocolate flavors. Finishes peppery and solid, with the slightest herbal note. Very nice wine to drink now through 2014. 1 Note

Pedrosa Tempranillo Blend -2007 (WE-112041)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

By no means is this the best wine from Pedrosa; it has decent red berry aromas, but what you really get is minty, forward oak. The palate has an acidic tang to it that suggests medium ripeness, while flavors of cherry tomatoes, herbs, vanilla and mint take you only so far. More barrel than substance here. 1 Note

Pedrosa Tempranillo Blend -2006 (WE-112042)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

An assault of oak, vanilla and cigar box is the opening salvo, while wave two and three bring raisiny aromas and finally lemon peel. Chunky and tough in the mouth, with vanilla and resin running ahead of acidic raspberry fruit. Finishes with a mix of sauciness, tang, wood notes and candy. 1 Note

Bodegas Julián Chivite Tempranillo Blend -2001 (WE-37319)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

A masterful mixture of Tempranillo, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Aromas of wood smoke, blackberry and plum. An open wine for near-term drinking. Sweet and rich at the core, while pure cacao darkens the tail end. 1 Note

Carmelo Rodero Tempranillo Blend -2005 (WE-104818)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

A blend of Tempranillo with Cab Sauvignon and Merlot. Aromas of black cherry, spice, aged cheese and earth are solid, while the palate features good fruit but some weakness in structure. Flavors of black cherry and berry are rich at first but fade fast, while the finish is nice but short on complexity. Drink now through 2012. 1 Note

Bodega del Romero Tempranillo Blend -2005 (WE-100611)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

A solid, earthy style of Navarran red wine, with plum, berry and meaty aromas. The palate is forward, with solid flavors of tobacco, plum, tomato and leather. More fruity than herbal, with heat, thyme, mocha and coffee on the finish. Tastes like something from the Old World. Not currently imported. 1 Note

Bodegas Julián Chivite Tempranillo Blend -2000 (WE-25104)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

On par with Chivite’s other Reservas, but this infant just isn’t talking much quite yet. Nuances of black pepper, plum and oak play on the nose. Rich mouthfeel; juicy red berry and earth flavors peeking from the palate. Wake this one up 2005–2015. 1 Note
