Nikola Estate Frankland River Tempranillo
The Nikola Estate Tempranillo 2023, from the picturesque Ferguson Valley, showcases why this up-and-coming wine region of Western Australia is gaining recognition. Ferguson Valley, with its cooler climate, rolling hills, and well-drained soils, provides ideal conditions for growing high-quality Tempranillo. These elements allow the grape to develop bright, complex flavours while retaining a natural balance. Crafted with care, this wine reflects the region’s potential to produce exceptional varietals that rival more established wine regions.
Matured in large-format French oak for just four months, this wine retains a fresh and lively profile. On the nose, it reveals an inviting bouquet of bright red fruits, with raspberries and cranberries taking centre stage, complemented by hints of dusty red berries and allspice. The palate is light-bodied and bursting with ripe red fruit flavours, layering raspberries, cranberries, and strawberries and cream for a truly delightful experience. A delicate infusion of dried herbs adds complexity, while the super-fine, chalky tannins meld seamlessly with the wine’s juicy vibrancy.
Perfect for summer, this Tempranillo can be enjoyed slightly chilled and pairs beautifully with Italian cuisine. Its easy-drinking style and supple structure evoke comparisons to the celebrated Tempranillos of Rioja. Whether enjoyed now or over the coming years, this wine promises to enhance any occasion.
