Our motto for Tempranillo? Let it thrive naturally. Rocky soils, ample sun and dry conditions see this varietal shine. It’s a balance of care and nature’s touch that let Tempranillo reveal its vibrant personality.
DRINKS LIKE: Black olive. Sour cherry. Juicy bright berry. Fine tannins. Silky finish.
LOVE IT FOR: It’s sheer adaptability, a fail-safe, food-friendly wine that will stand up in any pot-luck situation.
FUN FACT: From the spanish word ‘temprano’, meaning ‘little one’, Tempranillo ripens swiftly. It thrives in the hills with the care of its growers, Michele and Paul Edwards!

Season
2025 was the driest growing season on record in the Adelaide Hills. This led to slightly lower yields and a very early start to the vintage. We avoided severe heat waves, but it was our quintessential cool Adelaide Hills nights that allowed the fruit to develop beautiful flavour and hold onto its natural acidity.
Vinification
Handpicked and fermented as 100% destemmed whole berries following a short cold soak and wild ferment. After 13 days on skins, the wine was basket pressed to French oak (9% new) and matured nine months in barrel before blending.
