A vibrant, savoury expression of Tempranillo that balances structure with freshness.
Produced in small quantities from our organically farmed vineyard beside the Finniss River, this is a food-focused wine with depth, energy and quiet confidence.
Grown on our family vineyard on South Australia's Fleurieu Peninsula, this certified organic Tempranillo reflects both the warmth of the variety and the restraint of our winemaking. Aromas of blueberry, ripe cherry and plum lead into a defined palate framed by earthy tannins and subtle oak. Bright natural acidity carries the wine through a long, savoury finish with notes of smoked bacon and spice. Structured yet approachable, it is a wine that rewards both the table and the cellar.
Vintage Notes
A warm, settled growing season delivered healthy fruit with excellent concentration and balance. Careful harvest timing preserved the natural freshness that defines our Tempranillo style, while allowing full flavour and tannin maturity to develop. The result is a wine with generous dark fruit, savoury complexity and a long, finely structured finish that will continue to evolve with time in bottle.
Winemaking
Harvested at full flavour ripeness while preserving natural acidity, the fruit was fermented gently to build structure without sacrificing freshness. Matured in seasoned oak to soften the tannins and develop savoury complexity, the wine was bottled with minimal intervention to allow the vineyard character to remain at the forefront.
