Fun Wine Facts!

Tempranillo is a black grape variety widely grown

to make full-bodied red wines in its native Spain.

Its name is the diminutive of the Spanish temprano

("early"), a reference to the fact that it ripens

several weeks earlier than most Spanish red

grapes.

Tempranillo has been grown on the Iberian

Peninsula since the time of Phoenician settlements.

It is the main grape used in Rioja, and is often

referred to as Spain's noble grape. The grape has

been planted throughout the globe in places such

as Mexico, New Zealand, California, Washington

State, Oregon, South Africa, Texas, Australia,

Argentina, Portugal, Uruguay, Turkey, Canada,

Israel and Arizona.
