It starts as Paladar's estate reposado: 100% Blue Weber agave grown seven years in the family's own fields, slow-cooked in brick ovens, fermented with a proprietary and wild yeast blend in open-air pine boxes and twice distilled in stainless pot stills with copper coils. After resting in oak, the reposado is finished in American oak barrels that previously held Tempranillo, Spain's great red wine grape, and bottled at 40% ABV in a 700mL bottle, each one hand-dipped in the volcanic soil of the agave fields. The label confirms it: Reposado Tequila finished in Tempranillo wine casks, NOM 1109. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80 proof (40% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 700mL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAgave:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% Blue Weber, 7 years, estate fields, Tequila, Jalisco\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e NOM 1109 (El Llano \/ Tequila Arette), master distiller Eduardo Orendain Jr.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e American oak barrels that previously held Tempranillo wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jalisco, Mexico\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA Rioja Finish on a Jalisco Reposado\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWine-cask finishes are rare in tequila because the wine has to lift the agave, not paint over it. The ex-Tempranillo American oak does exactly that here, laying soft red fruit and a whisper of tannin under the reposado's vanilla and caramel.
