Elephant in the Room South Australia Tempranillo 2025 - 6 Bottles

Product Description

Winery Background
Elephant in the Room is known for delivering wines that are big on character and never shy in flavour. Their Tempranillo brings a Spanish classic into the Australian context, offering a bold yet approachable red that reflects both tradition and modern drinkability.

Vineyards and Vintage Conditions
Sourced from South Australian vineyards with excellent sun exposure and cooling evening breezes, the 2025 vintage provided near-perfect conditions. Warm days ripened the grapes to richness, while cooler nights preserved aromatics and natural balance — ideal for Tempranillo’s hallmark dark fruit and savoury spice.

Winemaking Process
Fruit was harvested at optimal ripeness and fermented on skins for deep colour and flavour extraction. A period of maturation in seasoned oak softened tannins, added gentle spice, and preserved the wine’s vibrant fruit core.

Tasting Notes
Deep crimson with purple hues. Aromas of black cherry, plum, and dark berries are layered with hints of cocoa and spice. The palate is plush and juicy, offering dark fruit, subtle savoury notes, and smooth tannins leading to a long, rounded finish.

Food Pairing
Pairs beautifully with grilled lamb, chorizo, tapas platters, or tomato-based pasta dishes.

Story Behind the Wine
This Tempranillo celebrates bold flavour and easy charm — an Elephant in the Room expression that brings Spanish flair into a distinctly South Australian style, perfect for sharing with friends and food.
