Primvm Vitae - Crianza

2007 Rioja Tempranillo

Global Wine Co. Primvm Vitae - Crianza is a stunning expression of Tempranillo from the renowned Rioja region. This red wine showcases a medium-bodied structure, balanced beautifully by a bright acidity that adds liveliness to each sip. The fruit intensity is prominent, featuring delightful notes of ripe black cherry, plum, and subtle hints of leather and spice, which are characteristic of well-aged Crianza wines. Tannins are notably firm, providing a solid backbone while ensuring a smooth finish, making this wine wonderfully approachable yet complex. Its off-dry profile reveals just enough sweetness to enhance the fruit character, offering an enjoyable experience that pairs exquisitely with a variety of dishes.

While its reputation as a serious wine destination was eclipsed by France and Italy for many years, ignoring Spain today means missing out on some of the world's most exciting wines. Enjoying hundreds of miles of sun-kissed coastline and rocky interiors at higher elevations, Spain provides an ideal location for vineyards. Whether it is sparkling cavas from Catalonia, crisp Verdejos from Rueda, sublime Tempranillos from Ribera del Duero or inky Monastrells from Valencia, Spain has many wine styles to explore, all expressing the country's wildly unique terroir.
