About This Wine


Alavez

Sweet Style Garnacha - Tempranillo

Experience the harmonious union of two Spanish grapes with our Alavez Vino Tinto. This delightful blend unites Garnacha's deep, warm red berry notes and soft textures with Tempranillo's bold, layered character, showcasing the best of both varieties. Thriving in Spain's warm climate and slow-draining soils, these grapes achieve optimal ripeness and hydration. The winemaking process skillfully accentuates their unique qualities, with warm fermentation temperatures enhancing the wine's rich ruby hue and tannic structure. Oak aging introduces a subtle caramelized character that adds depth without masking the wine's fruit-forward nature. Share this crowd-pleasing Spanish gem with friends, and enjoy the delicious interplay of climate, grape variety, viticulture, and winemaking in every glass.

Wine Region


Spain

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.
