Chaffey Bros La Conquista Barossa Tempranillo Garnacha Graciano 2018

Rioja-Inspired Red Blend. Tempranillo parcels from Gomersal on the Western ridge and Williamstown in the Barossa’s southern hills were individually matured for seven months, in seasoned American and French puncheons and Hogshead barrels, then blended with Garnacha from 50+ year old vines in the Lyndoch foothills picked late February, giving the ripe juicy fruit needed to flesh out the structure of Tempranillo’s complex and savoury fruit. The final blend is tempranillo, old vine garnacha and graciano. Cherry and cola aromas mingle with hints of chocolate and spicy florals. a dark yet luminous crimson colour hints at the rich semi-savoury dark cherry and cola palate that finishes with a hint of grenache red cherry juiciness.

Badiola Laderas Rioja Tempranillo 2018

Badiola is in the heart of Rioja Alavesa. Founded in 2018, Badiola offers village and single vineyard wines that display the freshness, elegance and depth of flavours which we believe distinguish the great wines from Rioja Alavesa. They cultivate over 300 parcels of extraordinary vineyards on the slopes of the Sierra Cantabria, mainly in the villages of Villabuena de Alava, Leza, Samaniego, Laguardia, Navaridas and Baños del Ebro. The average age of the vineyards is around 50 years and many were planted in the 1920s, 30s and 40s. Bodegas Badiola aims to bottle some of the most distinctive terroirs in Rioja Alavesa. Behind it are Basque entrepreneur and txakoli producer Gorka Izagirre (Badiola is one of his surnames) and Península Viticulores, who handle the winemaking, managing and selling of Badiola wines. Thus, the two Masters of Wine who form Península Viticultores, Andreas Kubach and Sam Harrop, replicate the model they successfully established with Fontana, the family winery of entrepreneur Jesús Cantarero in Cuenca (Castilla-La Mancha). Aged 50 years on average, many of these vines were planted in the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s, well before the arrival of clonal selection to Rioja Alavesa. This precious wine heritage is seen by Kubach and Harrop as a great asset to make wines of place instead of wines of style; wines with finesse, drinkability and the ability to age. The Burgundy-inspired range of wines is designed as a pyramid covering all categories, from entry-level cuvées to single-vineyard wines. As regulations in Rioja stipulate that village wines must come from the same location where the winery is physically built, Badiola has come up with some ingenuous names to identify its three first releases. The fresh, aerial L4GD4 with crunchy red fruits comes from Laguardia; the rounder, riper V1BN4 with more presence on the medium palate is from Villabuena and the structured, L3Z4 that displays lovely acidity, ripe fruit and cellaring potential originates from Leza.

Henschke Stone Jar Tempranillo 2021

The 2021 Stone Jar Tempranillo pays tribute to Stephen and Prue’s grandson Bosco Nicolas Henschke, second child of Johann and Angela, who was born in Spain with a congenital heart defect and passed away in 2019 at four weeks of age. He lives on in the Henschke family’s love and memories. The tempranillo grape is native to northern Spain, where Bosco’s maternal family have a long history of making wine from this variety

Elephant in the Room Tempranillo 2022

The Elephant In The Room Titanic Tempranillo 2022 is a wonderfully aromatic and fragrant example of Australian tempranillo that is juicy, soft and supple. It has vibrant aromas of red fruits with hints of textbook cola, anise and raspberry jam. The palate is soft with supple tannins and low acid so its remarkably food friendly and delivers a mouthful of delicious vital fruit, a great depth of flavour and a satisfying finish.

Hither & Yon Tempranillo 2021

A vivacious, medium-bodied wine with a whole lot of pizzazz! Rich notes of dark forest berries, mocha and baking spice complement bright natural acidity and a taut frame of fine tannins. Barbecued meats and grilled vegetables are a great match for this Tempranillo.

Heirloom Adelaide Hills Tempranillo 2019

The 2019 Heirloom Adelaide Hills Tempranillo offers classic tempranillo aromatics of black cherry, pepper, cherry pip, African Violets, cola nut and spearmint. This wine is juicy yet dry on the palate, but then again tempranillo is a creature of split, multiple personalities. At each stage of the palate there is an interplay with fruit and acid and tannin. The final highlight is the never-ending length of the wine.
