DO of Castile and León (promoted 2007) south of Zamora on the north bank of the Duero, old pre-phylloxera vines. Tempranillo is the signature red (≥75%): dense and concentrated with deep notes of blackberry, plum, black cherry, leather, liquorice and a marked mineral touch, firm tannins and generous flesh — more tannic and alcoholic than Rioja, close to neighbouring Toro. Garnacha and Cabernet as complements. Malvasía, Verdejo and Godello for whites.
