Abancay Tempranillo Merlot

” The meal isn’t quite ready… still. An interesting, smooth-drinking bottle is just the thing to placate palates and provoke conversation. This unique Spanish red blend is perfect. From Cariñena, Spain, Abancay is crafted from 70% tempranillo and 30% merlot grapes and aged for 12 months in American oak. Medium-bodied, it reverberates with intense aromas of ripe red and black fruits that are rounded out by a little bit of spiciness, a little bit of oakiness and a hint of minerality. With a long, fruitdriven finish, it’ll keep things flowing… right through the turkey, should you wish, and you may very well at $6.99* for a 750 ml bottle. *Abancay Tempranillo Merlot is currently available in Trader Joe’s stores where wine is sold. It is $6.99 unless otherwise noted here: KY, FL: $7.99; and OH, NH: $8.99. Alcohol availability & price may vary due to state laws, taxes, shipment fees & other such stuff. (If we could, we would.)” — From the Trader Joes Fearless Flyer
