The Finca Loranque Tempranillo is an organic red wine from Spain. A wonderful gastronomic wine that was voted the Best House Red Wine for mid-range restaurants by Proefschrift, a magazine for wine-loving experts. So, a good glass of wine doesn't have to be expensive! It is bright red and sparkling. Broad-scented with soft wood, vanilla, ripe plums and cherries, and a light spice. The taste is full of fruit and round, with fine acidity and chocolate on the finish. Concentration and great length. The wine has aged for 12 months in French oak barriques. It is also fantastic with a beautiful roast beef from the oven with a sauce Bordelaise.
Finca Loranque is located in one of the oldest wine regions in Castilla La Mancha and is located in Bargas, 50 km south of Madrid and 10 km from the historic town of Toledo. Vineyards have been planted around Toledo since the 11th century because of the fertile soil (lime and clay). At the end of the 18th century, the Counts of Toledo decided to create a wine estate based on the French example. The French architect who was commissioned designed a complex in the architectural style of Toledo: fitting into the landscape of olive trees and vineyards, with thick walls that can withstand the heat. The domain subsequently fell into disrepair.
Around the 1980s, the current owners, the Diaz Bermejo family, began the renovation. To produce excellent wines, the Spanish winemaking duo Pablo Eguzkiza and Telmo Rodriguez were brought in. They specialize in expressing key soils through fruity, easy-drinking wines without excessive oak influence.
On the 500-hectare estate, 42 hectares of grapes are planted on the best terroirs: Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Merlot. The goal is to harvest healthy and concentrated grapes. A drip irrigation system per plant prevents drying out. Thanks to the central location of the cellar—the grape harvest is brought in quickly—and the cool cellars with optimal climate control, juicy and elegant red wines are produced here, in the hot heart of Spain! The secret lies in the French oak barrels. In short, nothing deep black and heavily alcoholic. Elegance and refinement alongside a full flavor!
