La Mateo Tempranillo Blanco 2019
Tasting: Tempranillo Blanco is the white DNA variant of Tempranillo, discovered in 1988. Like many other grape varieties Tempranillo Blanco can make a range of different styles depending on how it is handled. This barrel fermented, barrel aged expression sees a much more textural and structured version of wine from the grape. Concentrated and full bodied, muscular with notes of lemon balm and lemon myrtle, ripe apricot and peach, lemon flower blossom, jasmine and carraway.
