RedThumb Navarra Tempranillo

The classic grape of Spain, this wine represents generations of tradition. Fresh berries and subtle spice are followed by a touch of smokiness and velvety tannins, with a pleasant, lingering finish. RedThumb founders Dave Schavone and Diego Vasquez met in college in New Orleans in the early aughts, then parted ways for different states and careers in the wine industry. As a wine buyer for both a big national chain and then a boutique wineseller, Dave grappled with the same dilemma: how to get a consistent supply of the natural wines he and a growing cohort of his customers wanted to drink.
