Woody Nook Tempranillo 2025

Tasting Notes

The 2025 Tempranillo pours with a deep, vibrant purple colour. On the nose, it presents an alluring bouquet of ripe cherries, Turkish delight, and black jubes, creating a savoury and spicy aromatic profile. The palate is medium-bodied, with soft, chalky tannins that contribute to its easy-drinking nature. The taste is a beautiful blend of Morello cherries and subtle spice, giving the wine a lively, yet smooth character. The 5-month maturation in Oenosylvia French oak staves adds just a touch of complexity, complementing the juicy fruit while maintaining its focus on freshness and brightness.

Food Pairing Suggestions

• Tapas: Ideal with small plates of olives, grilled chorizo, or roasted vegetables.
• Grilled Meats: A great match for lamb skewers, grilled chicken, or steak with chimichurri.
• Cheese: Pairs well with semi-aged cheeses like Manchego or a rich Brie.
• Mediterranean Dishes: Enjoy alongside Mediterranean-inspired meals like lamb koftas, moussaka, or fresh tomato-based pasta dishes.

Best Serving Temp:
