International Tempranillo Day

Tempranillo Day is celebrated on the second Thursday of November every year and this year, it falls on November 14. The Spanish word ‘Temprano’ translates to ‘early,’ and Spain’s native Tempranillo grapes are called so because they are harvested early in the season. In 2011, the Tempranillo Advocates Producers and Amigos Society (TAPAS) celebrated the first Tempranillo Day with the goal of providing a way for people to add to the complexity of their wine drinking.

Celebrate with a glass of Tempranillo – plum, raspberry, and black cherry aromas and it’s fruity taste perfectly complements dishes with a hint of spice, making it a classic pairing with Spanish chorizo. Because of its low acidity, medium tannins, and savory flavor, Tempranillo wine pairs well with a wide range of salads and entrées.

To celebrate we are offering $15 off our Classic Tempranillo wine kit. Today only!
