Valley View Winery Rogue Valley Anna Maria Tempranillo – 2005 – 9.0 – James Meléndez / James the Wine Guy

I don’t think of Oregon as Iberian varietal wine country; but this is proof that Oregon’s wondrous wine countries have considerable potential beyond Pinot Noir (don’t get me wrong J’adore Pinot Noir).  This wine gives a bounteous structure and notes of  roasted red apple, plout, almond and vanilla.   A complex wine full of depth.

Red Lily Vineyard Rogue Valley Tempranillo – 2005 – 8.8 – James Meléndez / James the Wine Guy

At 14% alcohol this might be slightly hot but this medium to heavy body wine balances the acid and alcohol quite well.   Red pepper, Chanterelle mushroom, cedar box and chocolate and Mission fig.
