Also, if you've had a Tinta Roriz or Aragonez from Portugal, you've had non-Spanish Tempranillo (Tinta Roriz and Aragonez are alternate names in the north and south respectively). More often than not it's a blending grape, but one can find single varietal offerings particularly in Dão.

I've never had a non-Spanish Tempranillo, and I was on a kick for nearly 6 months with it! Has anyone else had one from not-Spain? Where was it from? Always looking to learn, and it's exciting to hear about it! Very nice, and yes, very unexpected. I've never had a non-Spanish Tempranillo, and I was on a kick for nearly 6 months with it!
