Once again, I tasted the 2014 Termanthia, a selection from 120-year-old ungrafted vines that is heady, ripe and powerful, voluptuous and juicy, with lots of concentration, tannins and everything else, powerful and ripe, impressive and showy. It's teeth-staining dark, with abundant tannins, a round, lush texture and gobs and gobs of fruit. It seems to be evolving very slowly, and the tannins still need some powerful food. 8,500 bottles and 250 magnums were filled in June 2016.

Pretty purity and balance to this with crushed black cherry, dark chocolate and some walnut and toasted-oak undertones. It’s full-bodied and flavorful with chewy tannins and an attractive core of fruit at the finish. A year or two will allow this to soften. Try after 2021.

This generous yet refined red shows a flashy, polished texture and supports expressive layers of blackberry, espresso, oak spice, wild herb and loamy earth flavors. This is muscular and well crafted, with elements of anise, red plum and rose petal fine tuning the finish. Drink now through 2030. 800 cases made, 400 cases imported.

Color: Ripe cherry, high layer, without evolution. Aroma: Intense and captivating, suggestive and complex With multiple aromatic layers. We find in the first instance black fruits such as currants and cassis, violet flower, spices like clove and nutmeg, tobacco leaf and fresh notes of thyme and rosemary, with a great balance and harmony. Palate: Termanthia shows a full and generous attack. A great expression with a lot of delicacy. Black fruits, violets, notes of scrubland, and sweet spices cover the mouth with harmony. The finish is fresh and long, delicate and balanced.

Varietal: Tempranillo

There are plenty of notable native Spanish grapes which have made a big impression on the wine world at large, but none are as renowned or as widely loved as the Tempranillo varietal. This black skinned grape has been used for wine making for centuries, with several ancient civilizations noticing the fact that it is highly versatile and holds some delicious flavors and aromas, perfect for those looking for a powerful yet elegant grape for their wines. Tempranillo often causes winemakers some trouble, however, as it is highly susceptible to many diseases. Despite this, plenty continue to persevere with this varietal, as it is perfect for producing delicious and complex single variety and blended wines, packed full of classic Spanish flavors and plenty of aromatic and intense surprises.

Region: Castilla Y Leon

From the beautifully robust, boisterous and spicy red Tempranillo wines of the west, to the fruity, aromatic white Verdejo wines from the Rueda, Castilla y Leon is a Spanish wine region with something to please everyone. The region itself is a particularly fascinating one for European wine fans, as it dates back several centuries and is, in many ways, the defining region of Spain for the country's viticultural identity. Dry, arid soils and baking heat produce wines of a unique character, coming from grapes which have to struggle to attain the moisture they require in order to ripen. The flavors of Castilla y Leon are big, bold and seductive, and packed full of all the passion and history only a country like Spain can provide.

Country: Spain

For over two thousand years, Spain has been responsible for much of Europe's wine production, making the very best of native grape varietals, and more recently experimenting with and perfecting wines made from imported grapes. Of course, the region of La Rioja is renowned world-wide for the quality and characteristics of its wines, which benefit greatly from the warm, dry continental climate of the area, and the fertile soils of the Ebro river basin. However, there is far more to Spanish produce than the complex, aromatic and earthy red wine of this region, as a result of the vast range of wine making traditions and practices, and terrains and climatic conditions found across the country. The region Castilla y Leon produces some of Europe's finest white wines, and the sparkling wines of Cava and the sherries of Jerez are firm favorites for wine lovers around the world.
