La Linea Tempranillo (2008)

"This wine is subtly different to its predecessor, while being entirely consistent with our aim of making a wine that reflects the variety, site and vintage rather than any winemaking influence. It shows the hallmarks of the variety, with a mixture of sweet red berries and dried herbs, and subtle aromas of liquorice. The fruit from Echunga provides a slightly tighter structure to the wine; so despite having slightly higher alcohol than the ’07, the ’08 is a little less fleshy and will develop more slowly in
bottle."

The Adelaide Hills is where it’s at! At least that is what we think everyone will be saying in a few years time. The team at La Linea thinks so too, thus creating a sumptuous little number like this ’08 Tempranillo. Showing classic Tempranillo characters of sweet red berries and dried herbs creates a formidable mixture, muddled with some ice cold cola, this is a very moreish, summertime red.
