Tempranillo is a vibrant red wine that showcases the unique characteristics of the Tempranillo grape, reflecting the terroir of the Simonsberg region in South Africa. Here’s a detailed description:

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Anura Tempranillo presents an inviting bouquet of ripe red fruits, including cherry and strawberry, complemented by hints of vanilla and spice from oak aging.

Palate: The palate is medium-bodied with a smooth texture, featuring flavors of plum, raspberry, and subtle earthy undertones. The wine is well-balanced with soft tannins and a refreshing acidity, leading to a lingering finish.

Winemaking Process

The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo fermentation in stainless steel tanks, allowing for precise temperature control to preserve the fruit's integrity.

Regular pump-overs are performed during fermentation to enhance flavor extraction.

After fermentation, the wine is aged in French oak barrels for approximately 12 months, which adds complexity while maintaining its fruit-forward character.
