Ledger David Cellars is very excited to release our first vintage of award winning 2010 Tempranillo! Grapes are sourced from our estate vineyard located in the Wagner Creek Sub-basin in Talent, Oregon (Rogue Valley AVA) with an average elevation of 1900 ft.

The 2010 vintage was a bit challenging with a cooler season that set the harvest date back to October 22nd for optimum ripeness and flavor from 3rd leaf vines. The wine was beautifully custom crafted by B. Kiley Evans at Agate Ridge making just 247 cases of this gem.

This wine was featured in the October Sunset Magazine and was a silver medal winner at the 2013 World of Wine Festival here in southern Oregon. Aromas of clove, cinnamon and coffee followed by black cherry fruit and supple ripe tannins support a pleasing long finish.

Taste this and other estate wines at our Le Petit Tasting room in Central Point (open Oct.-April, Thurs. thru Mon., noon-5pm; May-Sept., daily noon-5pm.) next to the Rogue Creamery and Lillie Belle Farms Chocolate.
