Senorio de la Tautila Tinto Tempranillo (750 mL)

A red with enough structure to put on a dinner table, which is the hard thing to find without alcohol.

Tempranillo is Spain's red grape and it does the work here — dark fruit, cherry and blackberry, with oak behind it giving a little smoke and some grip on the finish. Alcohol-free reds usually fall down on body; this one has some.

The winery ferments in stainless steel first and takes the alcohol out at the very end, by vacuum distillation at low temperature — the gentlest of the methods available, and the reason the aromatics survive the process.

Halal certified and vegan. Serve it at cellar temperature rather than room temperature, around 57 to 61°F, with roast meat, stews or hard cheese.
