The wine region of Tierra del Vino de Zamora
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.
The wine region of Castille-et-Léon
Cradle of great Castilian reds on high-altitude plateaus (450-1000 m) of the Duero. Tempranillo king (Tinto Fino, Tinta de Toro): powerful, structured reds with notes of black cherry, blackberry, plum, leather and spices, firm tannins and length worthy of long ageing. Stars: Ribera del Duero (Vega Sicilia, Pingus), fleshy Toro, Bierzo (fresh mineral Mencía). Lively herbaceous Verdejo whites from Rueda, cut grass and citrus.
The word of the wine: Anthocyanins
Phenolic compounds present in the skin of grapes that give colour to red wines during maceration.
