2009 Booker Vineyard Tempranillo

Estate: Booker Vineyard

Region: Paso Robles, Central Coast, California, United States of America



Tasting Note:November 6, 2018

Perfect wine for #TempranilloDay on 11/8. Dark ruby red and a touch lighter on the edges. Dark and rich nose with notes of cinnamon, baking spices, anise, leather, black currants, tons of purple flowers and dark raspberries. Medium tannins (5.5/10) and medium plus to full bodied. Dark and voluptuous palate with tons of violets, lavender, plush plums, anise, a touch blue fruit and a little bit of heat. Insanely rich with a long and lingering finish.


Made up of 100% Tempranillo from the Booker Vineyard in Paso Robles. First Booker wine for us and we will definitely be back for more. Aged in around 90% new French oak.
