    Greatness takes time. Around five years ought to do it. Grandeza, which means ‘greatness’ in Spanish, is a Tempranillo made from old vine fruit (10-30 years old) and bottle aged for five years at the winery before release.

    From the central plains of Spain, this part of the world has hot, dry summers and cold winters which helps to create ripe grapes full of flavour. Now with several years unders its belt this little beauty has developed into a nicely aged, highly drinkable, mellow and smooth Spanish red. Here’s what a few local wine scribbers had to say about Grandeza…

    4 1/2 Stars (Sam Kim)
    “Wonderfully matured and beautifully complex…the palate is silky and rounded, delivering sweet berry flavours together with rich savoury notes, elegantly framed by polished tannins”

    4 Stars (Raymond Chan)
    “This is a soft, textured, mouthfilling Tempranillo with sweet and savoury dark-red berry fruit with dried herb and earthy flavours”

    No need for any further cellaring here, that’s already been done for you! Just whip open the cork and enjoy this highly affordable, bottled aged Spanish red. Drink now to 2021 and for a food match of greatness try barbecued, roasted or grilled red meats.
