Protocolo Tinto 2021

Tempranillo of La Mancha may be the most reasonable quaffing red around. Manchegan winemaking has risen beyond measure in living memory and thanks to earlier harvests and temperature controlled fermentations. Tempranillo from the region is fragrant and flavoursome preserving the varietal characteristics of strawberries, spices and hints of tobacco. Before modern winemaking these were so often coarse and plain. Now the Tempranillo of La Mancha are truly delightful.

Food Pairings

Very versatile. The better cuts of lamb. Most any meat braised or stewed. Game birds and poultry, especially duck.
