Description
Tempranillo might be best known for its Spanish roots, but it’s clearly found its groove in Langhorne Creek – and in Martin Moran’s hands, it really sings. This 2023 release is full-bodied, ripe and generous, made from a single vineyard and basket pressed with care. Martin bled off a bit of juice early in the process to amp up the concentration, then let it rest for 15 months in seasoned oak to bring everything into balance.
The result is a bold, plush red with loads of cherry and dark berry fruit, earthy spice, and just the right hit of oak in the background. The tannins are fine and velvety, and while there’s plenty of richness here, it never feels heavy. It’s got that warm, generous feel you want in a Tempranillo, but still carries itself with polish.
Great with grilled meats or anything vaguely smoky or Spanish – or just on its own when you want a red with a bit of presence.

"It’s pure fruited – all plums and red berries – yet there’s detail, savouriness and depth, too... slinky and smooth, acidity cleansing as much as uplifting."
- Jane Faulkner (Halliday Wine Companion)
