Tempranillo blanco or uproot a previous planting of another variety. Wineries are able to use Tempranillo blanco in blends or as a varietal bottling. Tempranillo blanco produces medium-sized clusters with loose, average size berries that are yellow-green in color. The variety buds late but goes through veraison and ripens early. At harvest the grapes usually have a high malic acid and high levels of aromatic phenolic compounds such as terpenes that contribute floral, tropical and citrus notes to the wine. As a new variety, growers and winemakers are still learning about Tempranillo blanco and the types of wines it can produce. Winemaker
