2023 Tempranillo is an aromatic and textural wine, with vibrant and juicy red cherry, hedgerow berry and cola flavours. In the warmer months we love it slightly chilled, perfect for mild evenings and outdoor dining.
Palate - Lifted and aromatic, the wine has flavours of red cherry and hedgerow berries with a hint of cacao. Luna Temprana is round and full, finishing with fine powdery tannins.
Food Pairing - Tempranillo is a wildly diverse food-pairing wine. Try a glass with a gourmet pizza or dishes with tomato-based sauces. Luna Temprana also pairs deliciously with mexican style such as tacos, nachos or a chorizo paella.
Product Information
This Tempranillo has a bright ruby red colour with purple hues and enticing aromas of raspberry and cherry cola. A vibrant and aromatic style, with flavours of red cherry and hedgerow berries with a hint of cacoa. Our Luna Temprana is round and full, finishing with fine powdery tannins.
Since planting Tempranillo at Gemtree in 1999 we have been experimenting with making different styles to showcase the region and our biodynamic philosophy. Luna
Temprana is a fresh and fruity joven style of Tempranillo. We take a hands-off approach to winemaking, allowing the
flavours developed in the vineyard to shine. The Tempranillo grapes are hand-picked, cooled and left to sit on skins for seven days. The grapes are lightly pressed, and using the free run juice only, fermentation was held at 20 degrees to retain all the varietal definition we tasted in the vineyard.
