Tasting Notes
2020 Estate Tempranillo: Enchanting and Seductive- Black currant and deep violet aromas pull the nose into this Tempranillo. The wine moves into savory aromatics: worn leather, and dusty gravel, with hints of allspice - showing off Tempranillo's classic earthy aroma profile. The palate is rich and powerful with dark fruit and toasty spices, with a firm structure and strong acidity. Dividends will pay to those with patience, but this wine is a star right now.
