TEMPRANILLO 2021

October 2025 Red Wine of the Month
Lynfred Winery’s 2021 Tempranillo showcases the elegance of Spain’s most celebrated grape with a California accent. Crafted from 90% Tempranillo grown in the Clarksburg AVA and complemented by 10% Cabernet Sauvignon from Washington’s Columbia Valley, this full-bodied red bursts with aromas of vanilla, cherry, dried tomato, and tobacco. The palate reveals layers of dark plum, chocolate, and spice, finishing with round tannins and refined complexity. A natural partner to paella, tapas, and charcuterie, this wine is our autumn invitation to sip, savor, and celebrate tradition.
