2006 Cosecheiro

Our Cosecheiro is an estate-grown blend that derives its name from the Spanish cosechero, referring to the small, independent winegrowers of the Iberian Peninsula. The 2006 vintage is comprised of Tempranillo, Touriga Nacional, Touriga Francesa, and Tinto Cão sourced from our Y Ranch and Home Ranch vineyards in the San Antonio Valley. These components were fermented independently in small lots and aged in American, French, and Hungarian oak for 18 months.

With a medium weight on the palate and moderate tannins, this is a rich yet understated wine with a complexity as intriguing as it is subtle. Flavors and aromas of cherry and black plum are accented by notes of tomato leaf, clove, fenugreek, and cocoa. A faint touch of sweetness lends a sprightly aspect.

A natural for the table, it pairs well with a truly wide array of foods, ranging from salmon to lamb. This versatility also makes it an excellent accompaniment to traditional Spanish tapas.
