Tempranillo
Watkins Iron-Fire Tempranillo 2021
A full-bodied Tempranillo in the traditional Spanish Reserva style. This beast was tamed with extended time in oak to smooth and texturize. Medium ruby to garnet in the glass and brimming with plum, fig, cedar and leather.
The maritime influence at the Langhorne Creek vineyard that is created by the afternoon sea breezes allows fruit flavours to evolve without excessive sugar production. The limestone based soils create wines of power and elegance with great varietal character. This vineyard is ideal for precision control over water use on the vines and known to provide more structural wines.
