Marimar Estate Don Miguel Vineyard Tempranillo 2018

A dry red wine made from the Tempranillo grape in the AVA Russian River Valley by Marimar Estate. It features aromas of ripe dark fruits, dried figs, and black tea, balanced by a robust structure and refined tannins.

Key facts

  • Grape variety: Tempranillo
  • D.O. / Region: AVA Russian River Valley (Sonoma County, California)
  • Winery: Marimar Estate
  • Soil / Altitude: Western hills, Pacific Ocean influence
  • Ageing / Cellaring potential: 2 years in French oak barrels, cellaring potential of 15 to 20 years

The vineyard

The Don Miguel Vineyard is located in the western hills of Sonoma County, where the climate is shaped by cool ocean breezes and coastal fog from the Pacific. These conditions support a slow and balanced ripening process, lending the wine its characteristic freshness and mineral undertones.

Ideal combination

Winemaking

The grapes are hand-harvested, destemmed, and fermented with indigenous yeasts in small stainless steel tanks. The wine is then aged for two years in French oak barrels and bottled without fining or filtration.

Why buy it

This red wine is an excellent addition to your cellar, offering a cellaring potential of 15 to 20 years. If you appreciate elegant, structured wines with Californian character, you can buy Marimar Estate Don Miguel Vineyard Tempranillo 2018 online directly from our boutique.

This needed time to come to room temp and breathe (I had in the wine fridge). I’ll give it another day in court. Plum, dark cherry, oak, earthy

Full bodied with ripe dark cherry, fig and anise, this is a savoury and mineral driven red.

Nice tempranillo. A Spanish grape from a Californian terroir. Not a very heavy full bodied wine yet nice structure and good spicyness. Taste tones include black cherry dried fig and cedar. Cheers!!🍷🍷

Dark ruby in color. A little rustic. Aromas of cherry and soy. Flavors of plum, oak, and black cherry. I think if could age a little.

Really nice, big Tempranillo. Jammy. Big mid palate. A little short on the finish as someone else said. Really balanced acidity. The best Tempranillo I’ve had in a while.

I really like this. Different than its more popular Spanish sibling, I do get the family resemblance. Big tannins, need a bit of time to tame, a.fruit forward but balanced California take on a Spanish classic. Notes of plum, dried fig, chocolate covered black cherry, smoke, dried herbs, black tea, black pepper, and a floral perfume scent. Rating: 92-94

This is a first… Tempranillo from CA; deeper color than a Tempranillo, very slight brackish meniscus; black fruit, rich mouthfeel, balanced, low tannins, med acids, med etoh…. I’ve had only Spanish Tempranillo, so I feel this has been “Californiaized, richer fruitier than European Tempranillo, still quite good…. With chicken & mushroom, tasty!
