Just like the noble creature, The Stag wines represent elegance, grace and esteem. Quintessentially Victorian, they are made in a classic cool climate style. On the nose, a little rustic, with savoury spices, red berries, bright cherry and potpourri aromatics. Medium bodied and supple on the palate, with cherry, chocolate and tobacco notes. Tempranillo tannins have a powdery feel about them, leading to a savoury spice finish.

Made from 30-60 year old bush vines of the Tempranillo variety, dry farmed in the traditional Castilian way, and producing very small bunches of grapes, on average less than 2.5 kg per vine. The vineyards are planted at an altitude of 700-800m above sea level, in a dry, very continental climate. Sunny conditions lead to intense fruit aromas and silky tannins, while cool nights help to keep a refreshing acidity, which sustains the wine during its ageing.This is a classic example of elegant, oak aged Spanish red wine, made from the famous Tempranillo variety. On display are ripe berry aromas, which are typical for the variety, and a beautiful, pleasingly complex bouquet, with hints of leather, spice and vanilla. Dry and full bodied, it shows remarkable freshness for its age and boasts a round, velvety texture, as well as great length with a slightly mineral finish. It's a wine that "grows in the glass", developing layers of complexity over time. A versatile food wine, great with meat pies, stews and grilled meat, but also simply with good ham, cheese, bread and olive oil. Ready to drink, but will keep well for three to five years.

Spain continues to inspire Australia with wines of character, tradition and freshness. These characters plus a little bit of passion and beauty can be tasted in this ripping Vino Tinto from Bodegas Borsao. Made from Tempranillo sourced from vineyards in northern Spain that have been producing quality Tempranillo for generations, this flavoursome red shows delicious cherry and plum flavours and it ideally matched with red meats and hard cheeses.

Vibrant aromas of cherry (Tempranillo), cola and earth (Monastrell), heritage rose (Grenache), violet and spice (Touriga Nacional) harmonise. A compote of red and dark summer berries is restrained and shaped by the savoury minerality and textured fruit tannins of this layered and complex medium-bodied wine. The Bio Project represents Shinglebacks ongoing commitment to undertaking native revegetation within our vineyards. The plants were carefully selected to provide benefits to the vineyard by specifically attracting beneficial insects and native birds, improve water quality and restore some of McLaren Vales biodiversity. To further support biodiversity in our beautiful region, Shingleback will be donating a portion of The Bio Project profit to the McLaren Vale Biodiversity Project Association.

A wine with the pizzazz of a unicorn, but the serious expression of a rhino it will charge the palate with a surprising blend of fresh red berry and plums with a savoury finish, dazzling not just to the eye but to every sense.

Tempranillo, Spanish for 'early ripening', our Tempranillo grapes are the first to fruit on our vineyard with berries loaded with colour and enticing flavours. Our Tempranillo grapes are grown on our vineyard in Markwood and the 2019 vintage has proven to be an excellent year for the Spanish varietal. Classic savoury Tempranillo characteristics with cherry and raspberry notes make for an excellent food wine.

The Silver Route (named after La Ruta Via de la Plata) is a very appealing red from Extremadura in western Spain. This frontier region is the size of Switzerland, yet has just a million inhabitants. It also has an abundance of cork trees, oaks, black Iberian pigs, and old vines, the age of which ensures intense, ripe, juicy wines. And that’s what you’ll enjoy here. Vibrant, strawberry rich Tempranillo, turbo charged with peppery, black, brambly Syrah, with that concentration only sun-baked, low yielding, old vines deliver. Delicious proof that “the most exciting aspect of modern Spain is not what is new, but what is old: ancient vines in undiscovered places” (FT Weekend). Lovely on its own, even better with barbecued kebabs or Spanish ham.
