It’s time to step into the kitchen. Our Fifth Note Cellars Tempranillo from the warm, Mediterranean climate of Dunnigan Hills, California, is food-friendly and full of flavor. In addition to its stewed dark fruit and baking spice, this wine has all the structural characteristics of a wine perfect for pairing with food. Tempranillo is a grape variety that has historically always held a seat at the dinner table. Its bountiful tannins will assist in the breakdown of heavy proteins such as steak for a harmonious, textural experience best enjoyed with a “sip, bite, sip” approach. Our wine’s optimal acidity levels won’t overwhelm starchy textures and will cut through the fat and cream of richer dishes, all while working beautifully in tune with your meal. We think the time has come to pour yourself a glass and flip through the pages of your favorite recipe books. Whether you’re cooking for yourself or a crowd, our Tempranillo will provide the perfect accompaniment. Scroll through the image carousel above to learn more about this wine.
