A blend of Tempranillo, Grenache and Mataro. Positively bursting with juicy red & black berries and oh so fresh. There's a touch of pure "grapey-ness" about the flavour too. Lots of spice on the back palate; mostly nutmeg & pepper. Those are the keys, but tomato flavoured, soft acidity and a tiny suggestion of earth both help it along. A lick of tannin on the finish too. So easy to drink & food friendly, there is a danger that you'll fail to notice what a very good wine it is. And perhaps that's a part of its charm too. 220 cases made. Get it while it's fresh. - JP

Wine drinker's are beginning to realise that early drinking styles of red wine don't have to sacrifice complexity to achieve immediate deliciousness. This example from Smallfry, inspired by wine maker Wayne Ahrens' year long stint in Spain, is a fantastic case in point.
Designed to be enjoyed right now and perfect with food, there is little doubt of the quality apparent in this wine. Its juicy berried and spiced nature make it a joy to drink. - JP
