The 2023 Hay Shed Hill Vineyard Series Shiraz Tempranillo is a vibrant red blend that brings together the richness of Shiraz with the savoury lift and structure of Tempranillo. Produced in Western Australia, this wine offers a modern, food-friendly style that balances ripe fruit with freshness, making it an approachable and versatile choice for a wide range of occasions.
The nose is bright and expressive, revealing aromas of blackberry, red plum and dark cherry alongside hints of spice, dried herbs and subtle oak. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with smooth tannins, lively acidity and generous flavours of dark berries and ripe plum. The Tempranillo component adds savoury complexity and structure, leading to a balanced and persistent finish.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is a fantastic everyday red for those who enjoy fruit-forward wines with a touch of savoury character. Available as a convenient 6-bottle pack, it's perfect for keeping on hand for casual dining and entertaining. Pair with gourmet burgers, grilled lamb, barbecue dishes, pizza or Spanish-inspired tapas. Best enjoyed over the next 3–5 years while its vibrant fruit and freshness are at their peak.
