|
Tempranillo is one of Australia’s new & exciting varieties, originally from Spain, and is ideally suited to McLaren Vale’s temperate Mediterranean climate. Blackbilly's classical winemaking, which includes the use of new French oak puncheons, ensures a wine of substance and style.
This first release vintage Blackbilly Tempranillo has produced a rich, fresh, fruity wine with a savoury edge. The maturation in large French oak puncheons for 14 months provides a complex oak character in harmony with the fruitiness producing medium bodied in style, but with full flavour and beguiling complexity. We have sealed each bottle with a screwcap to ensure freshness as the wine ages. This wine has been treated with respect in our cellar it is suitable for medium term cellaring when the wine may develop a harmless crust. Ideally decant and allow the wine to breathe on opening.
