As I plan our product roadmap out into 2008, I come upon a realization. People love our existing Tempranillo. That humble statement raises a question, should we mix our coming estate harvest in with our imported fruit, or make 2 different wines?
I love small lots of wine and I love diversity. So we're going to keep our estate Tempranillo separate from our partnerships with other vineyards. Therefore, we need to start naming them uniquely. Welcome to the Elena Edition of the Tempranillo. Elena is wife to Galo and a huge contributor to the business. Wines bearing the name Elena Edition will be the higher alcohol, more structured version of our Tempranillo portfolio for years to come.
It accumulated 27 months in the barrel, allowing it to concentrate nicely. The fruit and pallet are lovely.
