Tasting Notes:

Tempranillo is one of Spain’s most important red varietals. It is the base for all red wines from Rioja, and the Tapeña Tempranillo is aclassic interpretation of this food-friendly grape. Luscious red cherry fruit flavors are balanced with an earthy, structured backbone.A touch of mocha and spice linger on the long, smooth finish.

Black Opal established in 1986, comes from a place of untamed territories and unspoiled land. This is Australia. The land they call “Oz”. The land down under. Brimming with life, Australia is a dreamland rich in culture, diversity and natural history. This is apparent in the crystal blue skies above, in the red landscape, even the glistening opal, and a gem that dates back 60 million years. Among Australia’s magnificent opals, one glows even brighter - the black opal. Like their namesake, Black Opal wines are purely Australian, offering up the glowing mystique that is Australia. Tap the truly Australian Black Opal wines and discover the mystery. The Black Opal wines are sourced from vineyards found in South Australia along the Limestone Coast, at Langhorne Creek and in the infamous Barossa Valley.

Wine maker notes
The 2006 Black Opal Chardonnay is bright straw in color. Aromas of peach, melon and citrus develop into a crisp and delicious finish.
