About River Estate Tempranillo 2019 750mL
This River Estate Tempranillo opens with inviting aromas of ripe dark cherry, dried fig, and a subtle hint of leather and tobacco leaf. On the palate, it delivers a generous core of blackberry and plum fruit, underpinned by earthy notes and well-integrated oak spice. The finish is smooth and lingering, with fine-grained tannins and a touch of dried herb complexity.
