Perfect wine for #TempranilloDay on 11/8. Dark ruby red and a touch lighter on the edges. Dark and rich nose with notes of cinnamon, baking spices, anise, leather, black currants, tons of purple flowers and dark raspberries. Medium tannins (5.5/10) and medium plus to full bodied. Dark and voluptuous palate with tons of violets, lavender, plush plums, anise, a touch blue fruit and a little bit of heat. Insanely rich with a long and lingering finish. Drink till 2022.
Made up of 100% Tempranillo from the Booker Vineyard in Paso Robles. First Booker wine for us and we will definitely be back for more. Aged in around 90% new French oak.
$$$ - Purchased from WineBid for $44.95, release price was $60.00 and retail is around $77.00.
Happy #TempranilloDay! What are you drinking to celebrate?

Another great last minute gathering at the storage facility!
Alongside the Harris, this was my favorite. My very first Booker wine and it was decadent. Needs a healthy decant but at 30mins in, nutmeg and toasted oak, pipe tobacco and Mexican vanilla. Rhubarb spicy finish. Need to try more of these!

Young but very good. Probably the best Tempranillo I’ve had, which is not saying much.
