About this Item

2021 Amper Bo Tempranillo
36 (6 x 6) 750ml

100% Tempranillo

Wine of Origin: Bottelary, Stellenbosch
Winemaker: Warren Ellis

Only the third vintage to be offered on the Cape Winemaker:s Guild Auction, this wine follows the pioneering 2015 Amper Bo Tempranillo - the first 100% Tempranillo ever presented. While Tempranillo is classically medium-bodied, its remarkable tannin structure provides exceptional ageing potential, making it a rare and compelling addition to the Guild’s offering.

Tasting Notes: A subtle nose reflecting dark and red cherries, violets, dried herbs and wet tobacco leading into a leathery finish. The palate is dense and complex with fine-grained tannins, packed with dark berries and plum, which unfolds with great length.

Ready to drink now until 2035.
