About

Product Description:

"The white Tempranillo Blanco grape is 97% genetically similar to its red Tempranillo cousin. The leaves and grape cluster shape are identical; so also are their susceptibility to diseases and pests. Both have short, early-ripening cycles which enable these grapes to be grown in any subzone of the Rioja Domination and to complete their ripening even in zones where later ripening takes place. The Tempranillo Blanco vines have medium to high vigor and a medium yield (6,000 kg of grapes per hectare). The grape clusters, while abundant, are of small size and medium weight." -- Winery
