Flaco, made with Spain's signature Tempranillo grape means dude in English. It is produced and bottled by Bodegas Flaco in the DO of Vinos de Madrid. Flaco shows the complexity of a serious wine for the price of a song! The luscious fruit and soft texture make it a perfect wine to craft high quality Sangria.

Madrid is not only the capital of Spain but one of the most interesting wine growing regions of Spain. The outskirts of this great royal city are full of old Tempranillo vines.Madrid is the great unknown. Most Spaniards do not know that Madrid makes wine, thus the incredible values that Madrid showcases at the present time.

The average temperature between April and October is 66.7º F with 20.1 inches of yearly rainfall. The southern Continental climate's hot days and cool nights, plays a major role in the slower, yet more balanced ripening process of the grape.

Flaco 2012 Tempranillo, Vinos de Madrid DO
Rating: 88

(all stainless steel): Vivid ruby-red. Bright, spice-accented red fruit and flowers on the nose and palate. Light-bodied, very fruity and brisk, with firm finishing cut and no tannins to get in the way of immediate gratification. This is way too easy to drink.
