Description

Reillys - Dry Land Tempranillo 2016 750MLTempranillo can be a challenging grape, classically ripening early in the vintage with low natural acidity. 2016 was picked at optimal ripeness with prolonged cold soaking prior to open fermentation. Hand plunging and gentle pressing has retained the fine fruit characters. The nose shows vanilla toffee, tobacco and mocha and its earthy flavours combine with spiced confectionary and stewed cherries. Soft tannins and a lingering finish complete this

It has been honooured with several ale awards as best in its category
