The 2022 Petit Verum Tempranillo is a certified organic red from Castilla-La Mancha, Spain, produced by Altosa Wines from estate-grown Tempranillo. Made entirely in stainless steel to preserve freshness and varietal character, it showcases a modern, fruit-driven style that delivers exceptional value while remaining true to its Spanish roots. The organically farmed vineyards are planted on limestone-rich soils, contributing freshness, balance and vibrant fruit expression.
The nose reveals ripe plum, red currant and dark berry aromas with hints of herbs, spice and soft cocoa. The palate is medium-bodied and approachable, offering juicy red fruit flavours, polished tannins and a silky texture. Bright, smooth and easy-drinking, it finishes with gentle spice and impressive balance, making it an ideal everyday red.
Ben’s Recommendation:
A fantastic value organic Tempranillo that overdelivers for the price. Its soft tannins and vibrant fruit make it a versatile match for tapas, charcuterie, roast lamb, grilled sausages, pasta dishes and soft cheeses. Enjoy now and over the next 2–4 years while its fresh fruit and youthful character are at their best.
