Tasting Notes

A stunning wine from a remarkable vintage. Our 2021 The Stones Speak Tempranillo presents an intriguing array of aromas including spice, green peppercorn and olive brine, intermingled with vibrant red raspberry. A compelling umami richness takes center stage, framed by rich flavors of cherry, fig, cacao nibs, and cedar, with a luxurious, velvety mouthfeel. The wine is deliciously complex, featuring mouthwatering salinity, silky tannins, and a long, satisfying finish. Enjoy!
