Tempranillo 2021 - Black Market Deal #41425
- Medium bodied
- McLaren Vale
Fresh, juicy, plump red wine that you’ll want to drink ‘round the clock. We were pretty excited to get some wines from this producer, being a standout in their field for innovation and craftsmanship in the McLaren Vale region. This exemplifies everything that they’re about- being a little playful while showing great respect for the wine and its journey. You can expect all the sappy, black fruits that are typical of tempranillo, with a little kick of earthy goodness that parks itself so wonderfully next to food. The best part is that this is an all round pleaser, organic & biodynamic certified, with no added preservatives and vegan friendly. What’s not to love?

Region
McLaren Vale
McLaren Vale is a region that lives in the shadow of the hype of the Barossa. While it has played on Shiraz as its drawcard, and continues to battle (quite rightly) with the supreme power of the Barossa, perhaps the most exciting wines from this region are its old vine Grenache and Mataro (Mourvedre/Monastrell - whatever you want to call it), and its more recent foray into Spanish and Italian varietals. Both the sun's warmth and the reliable salty afternoon gully breeze make the climate closer to Mediterranean than many other Aussie regions, and some of the Fiano, Vermentino, Tempranillo and Sangiovese from here are sublime (to name only a few). Awareness, proper consideration and sense of place are key attributes to the region's success, and its recent win against urbanisation reinforces the value of the viticultural region.
