Vibrant ruby-red color with aromas of cherries, strawberries, and blackberries, with subtle notes of dried herbs and spices. The wine offers flavors of juicy red fruit with hints of tobacco.
92 Halliday’s Australian Wine Companion Fruit from the Pancake Creek vineyard in Gembrook. Deep purple. Mayer's second tempranillo was picked a bit earlier than the 2021 and fermented with fewer whole berries to give the wine more structure. Ripe and darkly fruited with aromas of black raspberries, fresh licorice and a little Sichuan pepper. Bursts onto the palate with ripe, juicy fruit flavours, which are immediately balanced by firm and savoury tannins. It'll probably age OK but, like the gamay, Timo made this to be chugged down (and enjoyed) with food on release. Drink 2022 - 2029.
