Flores de Callejo Tempranillo

 $18.00

The case could be made that, for the most honest expressions of tempranillo in Spain, you should look to Ribera del Duero, rather than Rioja. The reasoning is that top-tier Rioja tends to be oak-drenched, aged and complex, but that it somewhat smothers the character of the grape in all those firewors. Ribera wines, on the other hand, tend towards a slightly brighter, fresher and less worked style, letting the jubilant red-fruited fun of the grape shine through. This is plush and ballsy, with cherries and plums topped with crackles of cinnamon, nutmeg and black pepper spiciness. You’d scarcely notice if you didn’t have this with food - there’s more than enough flavour to take centre stage.
