2022 Reserve Tempranillo
*NEW RELEASE*
Made from 100% Tempranillo, this Reserve Tempranillo showcases the richness and elegance of the grape. Aromas of Rainier cherry and black plum are layered with baking spice, cola, and subtle hints of anise. Notes of dried tobacco leaf and forest floor add depth and complexity. On the palate, vibrant red fruit meets savory nuances and finely woven tannins, creating a rich, velvety texture. The long, lingering finish unfolds with warm spice, subtle vanilla, and earthy undertones, leaving an elegant impression of balance, freshness, and structure

Red Heaven Vineyard on Washington's Red Mountain AVA is the source of our 2022 Reserve Tempranillo. The vineyard's calcium-rich, well-drained soils naturally limit vine vigor and encourage deep root growth, producing smaller berries with exceptional concentration and intensity. Combined with Red Mountain's warm days and cool nights, these conditions consistently produce Tempranillo with remarkable depth, structure, and aging potential.
Ali Mayfield serves as winemaker for Mansion Creek Cellars, working closely with vintner Denny Russell on every vintage. From selecting vineyard sources and tasting through blends to deciding when each wine is ready for bottling, they work side by side to craft balanced, expressive wines inspired by Spain and rooted in Washington.
