The Pawn “Pawn Star” Maturana Tinta 2021 is a distinctive Australian red wine made from the rare Maturana Tinta grape, traditionally associated with Rioja but here cultivated in Mcclesfield’s ironstone slopes in the Adelaide Hills. It presents vivid magenta‑purple color with lifted aromas of red berries and pepper. On the palate it delivers a savoury, textured experience framed by balanced natural acidity and structured tannins, with flavors of raspberries, violet florals, spice, and subtle earthy notes. Fermentation takes place in small open‑top vessels and the wine sees around nine months in a mix of old French and Hungarian oak, adding complexity without overpowering the variety’s character.
