Lagar Alto Tempranillo 2007
La Mancha, Spain
Often referred to as Spain's 'noble grape', Tempranillo means 'little early one' in Spanish, because it ripens earlier than other red grapes. Grown throughout many regions in Spain, this grape produces wines that are gaining worldwide recognition and acclaim. Until recently, the region of La Mancha was most notable for its romantic, Don Quixote. Now a revolution in winemaking has swept through the land of windmills and now many old vineyards have embraced quality without pushing their prices through the roof.
The Lagar Alto Tinto comes through with blackberry, cherry and dark plum notes, plus touches of earth and smoke. It’s medium-bodied with moderate tannins and a smooth texture.
Due to high demand, this wine is not available for individual sale.

Have had several bottles now of this and enjoy it quite a bit. Very good value.
A little thin, but worked well with summer bbq menu.

Try the Lagar Alto Tinto with grilled meats such as hamburgers, sausages or chicken. It also goes well with hard cheeses like Manchego, Parmesan or even Gouda.
