About This Wine


Doble de Diez

Tempranillo

A classic Spanish wine: red-fruited, medium tannins, subtle notes of tobacco and dried violets. The Doble de Diez is one of the new summer favorites at Firstleaf. Sometimes there is nothing that hits the spot like a strong Spanish red paired with classic tapas under the summer sun. The mix of fruit and silky texture make this a vibrant, youthful take on the Old-World style. The savory tannins make a great contrast to the texture of red meat, so consider trying it with a steak before you move on to the more complex Spanish pairings. We have loved it with beautiful cuts of Jamón and Albóndigas. Judges love it too! It took home 92 points and a Gold medal at the 2018 Sommelier Challenge.

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.

We love this Spanish stunner for the full bodied red fruit and subtle notes of tobacco and dried violets. These secondary notes make it perfect for pairing with real, complex Spanish food.
