Tempranillo 2021

A true Okanagan Tempranillo, with shades of Rioja. The Moon Curser 2021 Tempranillo is a medium-full bodied red wine with a medium ruby colour in the glass. This complex wine leans toward the savoury end of the flavour spectrum with notes of paprika, vanilla, cigar box and chili powder on the nose. Flavours of blackberry, sour cherry, dates and red pepper flakes marry with smooth, round tannins and a fresh backbone of acidity to create an approachable yet refined palate. The integrated American oak components create a lovely mid-palate weight and texture. The finish lingers quite long, creating a wine worth remembering. This is an approachable wine that drinks well now, but would evolve nicely in the bottle up until 2028 - 2030. Enjoy this wine with prosciutto, vegetarian lasagna, garlic chicken and any tomato based pizza.
