Gill Estate Rivah Tempranillo 2021

Perfect with lamb shoulder, beef ribs, veggie kabobs and almost anything else you can grill. A great gift for the host and one that’s not quite fancy enough for them to harbour so you’ll get more than a glass if you keep close.

Koomilya SC Pannell Tempranillo Touriga 2019

The ripeness of Hilltops' fruit is doing nothing but favours to this Tempranillo. Gloriously medium-to-full bodied in the glass with layers of sarsaparilla and cola nut meeting lovely herbaceous edges and a wash of leathery tannins.

Linear Tempranillo 2022

If the words "easy-drinking BBQ wine" pique your interest, you're going to want to pay close attention to this! A Tempranillo with a splash of Graciano that's all cherries. Super bright red cherries and spice on the nose lead to cherry ripe characters on the palate, with a crack of black pepper and a nice smidge of tannin. Delicious.

## ABOUT TEMPRANILLO
Hardy and drought-resistant, Tempranillo has soared in popularity here in Australia due to its compatibility with both our warm climate and our love of hearty red wines. It can boast notes of juicy cherry, bright tomato, leather, tobacco—or at its best, a combination of all the above!  It’s the most planted variety in its spiritual homeland, Spain, where it is labelled under many denominations–the most internationally recognisable, of course, being Rioja. There are some fantastic Australian examples of Tempranillo, too, which offer a fantastic sidestep for lovers of bold Aussie reds such as Shiraz! 

Tempranillo is an incredibly versatile variety for the dinner table: youthful, guzzleable styles are often labelled as ‘Joven’ (Spanish for ‘young’) and make fantastic barbecue wines, whereas more savoury, oak-aged examples are a fantastic choice for hearty roasts and rich stews.
