2022 Audrey Wilkinson Winemaker's Selection Tempranillo

New South Wales · Hunter Valley

New South Wales is where Australian wine started, and the Hunter Valley remains its most distinctive corner. Humid and subtropical, it harvests early and makes two wines found nowhere else in quite the same form: Semillon picked low in alcohol that ages for decades into something waxy and toasty, and medium-bodied, earthy Shiraz. Cooler and higher, the Canberra District does spicy Shiraz with Viognier, and Orange works at genuine altitude.
