Tentenublo is a small project based in Rioja Alavesa, known for wines that emphasize place, balance, and drinkability. Xérico Tinto is sourced from old vines grown in dry, high-elevation sites, where limestone and clay soils and a continental climate shape wines of freshness and tension. Sustainable farming and restrained winemaking allows the character of the fruit and vintage to emerge.

The 2020 vintage is supple and expressive, offering red cherry, wild strawberry, and plum layered with subtle spice and a savory, earthy undertone. The palate is medium-bodied and well-proportioned, with bright acidity and fine, gently grippy tannins that keep the wine lively. This is an accessible Rioja red that is well suited to everyday meals and relaxed gatherings.

Varietal: Tempranillo
Appellation: Rioja, Spain
Farming: Sustainably farmed
Style: Red. Fresh, balanced, and versatile
