Selection International Spanish Tempranillo w/Grape Skins

Selection International Grape Skins Spanish Tempranillo shows the black cherry, raspberry, plum and tobacco notes of the varietal, but the wine tends towards lushness and an overflowing of soft, ripe tannins, rather than bright fruit.  Vanilla and spice notes in the oak give way to a beguiling hint of dark coffee on the finish.  Medium-to-full bodied, it will drink well under three months and will soften impressively after six months to a year in the bottle.  Serve with tapas, like grilled chorizo, rich tomoato dishes like Moussaka or even grilled sardines.

The addition of a grapeskin pack to Winexert's premium Selection International enhances not only the body, mouth-feel, tannin and color of the wine, it does so without increasing the need for extra aging. These wines drink very well soon after bottling, and will improve on the same scale as regular Selection International: 6-12 months to achieve a high peak of flavor, and improvement
for several years under good cellaring.
