    Sold out. What a pain. More on the way from Spain. Insane in the membrane.

    Tempranillo (temp-rah-knee-oh) is Spain’s favourite grape and it just loves the ancient soils, high altitude vineyards and harsh climate of belting hot days and cold nights of the Manchuela region in central Spain.

    Produced from 25-35 year old vines this is a rich, medium to full bodied red, succulent and loaded with spicy dark berry fruit flavours. This is another example of some seriously wicked value Spanish red that’s on the market – Ole!

    If you’re new to this style of red but love your classic more full bodied Aussie red, give this a whirl. Fire up the BBQ and serve with sizzling slabs of steaks, sausages and your other favourite barbecued red meats.
