Parentage of the grape: None found. It is an ancient variety.
History of the grape: Though it is easily the most interesting and unique red grape in Rioja, its yields are low, it is prone to downy mildew, and it ripens extremely late. Thus, the cooler parts of Rioja are completely unsuitable for it. Indeed, a local joke has it that the name of the grape comes from the typical vigneron’s response when asked to grow it Read more »

Bodegas Ramon Bilbao Tempranillo Rioja Rioja Gran Reserva 2004
Snoothrank:
Nice dark purple color. Aromas range from resiny, to pruny, to something like anise. Very pleasing initial palate. There is some fruit here--blackberry as much as anything--but it doesn't take over. Some dusty earthiness. Nice acid tartness. Firm supporting tannin. US$19.99 at Costco last summer. Read More

Bodegas Beronia Gran Reserva 2005
Snoothrank:
Inky dark plum color. Somewhat volatile nose. Very smooth initial mouth sensation. Not a lot of fruit--some hint of blackberry, somewhat tart, very subdued tannin. This definitely a food wine. I think I'm going to get a slice of cheese to have with this first glass. US$24.99 at WIne Club in Santa Ana. Read More

Finca Los Alijares Graciano 2008
Snoothrank:
This is a magnificent value wine (I picked it up for $12). It's full, rich and complex yet zippy and acidic, avoiding the cloying sweetness you often get with wines that have alcohol content of this level. Delicious! Read More

Bodegas Martínez Bujanda Rioja Conde de Valdemar Reserva 2005
Snoothrank:
In the glass, Cone de Valdemar Reserva had bright cherry red color. Most Italian red wines tend to have a ruby red or after long aging a garnet red color. This looked interesting and was a good start.On the palate. the wine had a lot of leather, some cocoa, a bit of tobacco and spices. Very complex and lots of aromas but I missed the fruit compo...
