Winemaker David Vergari is doing great things at Thornton Winery. This Tempranillo shows vibrant fruit and integrated oak spice on the nose, delivering blackberry, black cherry, dill, allspice and a touch of menthol on the palate. A great solo glass, or pair with medium strength cheeses or tapas of all kinds. A Platinum Award winner at the 2018 Sommelier Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
