About the wine
Rare single-vineyard red a Portuguese-inspired stunner by way of California
- This Tempranillo packs a powerful punch of ripe black plum, mocha and peppery spice flavors, backed by velvety softness from aging in French oak barrels.
- By helping her access a tiny plot of rare Tempranillo growing in the Sierra Foothills, you’re key to helping Ana prove how irresistible Portugal’s most famous wines can be when crafted in California’s Gold Country.
- With layer after layer of complexity, this is one red you’ll want to let breathe before serving, ideally while whipping up a decked-out cheese and charcuterie board, a big steak or paella.
Best before
Because this wine presents an immense tannin profile, rich in color, and with great acidity, it will age in your cellar over a long period. I'd dare to say 8 to 10 years! However, if youre patient enough, and decant it for 1 to 2 hours, you can enjoy it immediately. If you can, please grab a few bottles to lay down in your cellar, and years from now, you will be rewarded for your patience.
Serving advice
Please be sure to open it at least one hour before drinking it so all the flavors can fully emerge while softening the powerful Tempranillo tannins. Ideally, decant for a couple of hours so that all its unique aromas can be fully experienced. It will also subdue the tannin structure.
Food match
This is a full-bodied wine that will pair great with hefty dishes. A rosemary-rubbed leg of lamb or a well-marbled barbequed steak is also an excellent match for this wine.
Id recommend a rustic ratatouille or a vegetarian paella as a vegetarian option.

Excellent Tempranillo! Last night I wanted wine and drank right away. 2nd day in the fridge the wine opened up. Fruit forward with the now balanced tannins and spice. Big bold red. I'm going to start calling Amador Rioja west and will order again. *****
I will order this again and decant for the proper time this one deserves.
