Danza del Sol Winery, Temecula Valley (Riverside County, California) 2015

 This Spanish-style blend is fashioned from 75% Tempranillo and 25% Garnacha, in a medium-bodied style that’s now sufficiently mature to show a pleasantly leathery undertone, one that could lead you to believe you’re actually tasting a wine from Spain.  The oak signature is quite faint, which is appropriate for the wine’s weight.  Ready to rip, this is set for current consumption with no need for cellaring.  A Double Gold Award winner at the 2020 Toast of the Coast International Wine Competition.
