PindarieThe Risk Taker Tempranillo 2020
About this product
A fragrant medium bodied wine but with a bit more aging potential than the TSS blend. Tempranillo has proven its versatility, performing with consistent quality on the Western Ridge. Undeniably aromatic, with distinctive notes of mulberry and plum, and occasional hints of dried herbs. A juicy, fleshy yet medium-bodied palate making it very drinkable. The aim is to showcase the variety’s natural fragrance, generous flavours, and long savoury tannins. Vintage 2020 is a deeply coloured standout vintage.
Great drinking all year round, especially with a platter of Spanish or Italian cured meats, good green olives and caper berries, Manchego cheese and crusty bread. Or rich tomato dishes such as pizza & pasta.
Gentle handling of the fruit to ensure freshness, texture and depth. We harvest in the cool of night, ferment in open vessels with hand plunging or gentle pumping over to ensure even maceration, press gently, and run to aged French oak barrels for natural malo-lactic fermentation and then a sleep over winter. Bottled in January 2021, we have retained the freshness and aromatic intensity of the grape, while allowing some evolution of the tannins for which it is famed.
