A feature that distinguishes Tentenublo is the special situation of the 7 hectares of vineyards, spread over 19 plots located between ViƱaspre and Lanciego, one of the lesser known areas of the Rioja region. The incredible diversity of these plots reflects the various wines that Tenteublo produces, which in all cases involve very small unique plots, so the final production is only a handful of very unique, great Rioja wines. Bodega Tentenublo is one of the absolute new style Rioja makers. Made from a blend of Tempranillo and Garnacha supplemented with a tiny bit of malveisia and viura. The vineyards are all between 40 and 100 years old and they worked with minimal intervention and soil cultivation. The Tentenublo Tinto is a sensation of fresh fruit. The wine is aged for 10 months in French oak. In the nose we smell ripe black fruit with balsamic tones. It is a lively wine, uninhibited and informal and pure quality. Parker writes in his review (93/100): " This has personality and is very attractive "

FACT: In some cases, the wines receive a kind of WAX seal instead of a regular capsule. This has no further purpose and has the disadvantage that it hardens quite quickly and pieces can easily crumble (spontaneously, during transport, etc.). This has no influence on the quality of the wine. We cannot provide any further guarantee for this.

Sommy Pairing Beschrijving De 2020 Rioja Tentenublo Wines Tinto is een levendige en karaktervolle wijn met rijke tonen van rijp zwart fruit en subtiele balsamico-invloeden. De wijn krijgt een mooie diepte door de opvoeding op Frans eiken, waardoor de fruitigheid mooi wordt aangevuld met zachte houttonen. Deze veelzijdige wijn past perfect bij gerechten met rundvlees of gevogelte, vooral when bereid met grill of in de oven, omdat de fruitige en licht kruidige smaken mooi tot hun recht komen en de wijn de rijke aroma's van bijvoorbeeld geroosterde of gestoofde gerechten versterkt.

One of our latest discoveries in the Rioja is a family business called "TENTENUBLO" (this refers to the ringing of the bells used in the villages of La Rioja to repel hail during the growing season). OlivƔn Roberto has been appointed on behalf of this winery. Although OlivƔn is relatively young, it already has a very renowned status as a top oenologist. Olivan does not follow the normal structure but makes modern Rioja's and also from vineyards that are unique. All Tentenublo vineyards are high by Rioja standards (at +600 meters) and have a loamy / marl soil. The sticks have to work hard and a lot is left to nature. The yields are extremely low and the wines surprise every Rioja connoisseur. Although this is a young winery, we predict that this house will belong to the absolute Spanish and International top in the coming years.
