Audrey Wilkinson Tempranillo 2014

I wonder if Tempranillo will work in the Hunter? Sangiovese certainly hasn’t, but perhaps Temp. will have a happier time of it.

Anyway, this Audrey Wilkinson is certainly a vibrant number. Bright purple mauve, this smells very juicy – a real joven style. Slightly candied nose is all light musky purple juice flavours, with a light palate and an earthy edge. A simple early drinker, the lightness is friendly, the intensity suggesting young vine simplicity with little varietal character to mention.

An easy light red, not much more. Drink: 2015-2018. 15.5/20, 84/100

Details: 13.8%, Screwcap, $20, Sample
Would I buy it? No.

  • About me – Andrew Graham


    At 18 I started working in a small suburban bottleshop, largely to buy cheap beer. It was my first year of university, slogging through physics and chemistry, and a liquor shop seemed like fun. Needless to say I discovered wine, my uni degree morphed into something completely different and wine/beer took over my life.

    Twenty years later and I currently spend my days wearing many (wine) hats, mostly as a writer, presenter and marketer.

    While wearing my writer cap I write features for the likes of National Liquor News, Gourmet Traveller WINE and the RAS plus I'm a Lifestyle FOOD channel wine expert. Read more about me here or get in touch to book your next wine event with me here.
