Tempranillo, 2020

An Okanagan Tempranillo, with shades of Rioja. The Moon Curser 2020 Tempranillo is a medium-bodied red wine with a medium ruby colour in the glass. This complex and intriguing wine leans toward the savoury spectrum with notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, milk chocolate and paprika on the nose. Blackberry, dried cherries, cigar box and leather 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 2027 - 2029.
