Myattsfield Vineyards tempranillo 2023

This Perth Hills-sourced tempranillo is positively scrumptious. It captures so much about this Spanish variety and the style that’s made it so popular. The fruit is delightfully supple, with fine, understated supporting tannins and just a smidgen of oak. It’s medium-bodied and loaded with dark fruits, including blackcurrant, dark cherry liqueur, and a slightly spicy raspberry lift. Colour is bright and buoyant, and the palate just sings. This, to me, is the quintessential Australian version of tempranillo.
