Nick O’Leary Seven Gates Tempranillo 2024 is a vibrant, medium‑bodied red that leans into a fresher, Spanish‑inspired style rather than heavy Australian oakiness, blending Hilltops power with Canberra fragrance for a seriously moreish mid‑week drink. It is handpicked and crafted in small batches to keep detail and texture front and centre.

In the glass, expect dark cherry and red berry fruit with hints of plum, dried herbs and subtle spice, wrapped in fine, chalky tannins that give shape without heaviness. The palate is savoury and energetic – juicy fruit up front, then earth, dried herb and a gentle twist of spice through a dry, moreish finish that makes this Seven Gates Tempranillo 2024 dangerously easy to keep reaching for.

This is tailor‑made for chargrilled chorizo, lamb skewers, paella, pizza and tomato‑based pasta, and it will also sing with tapas, grilled veg and hard cheeses, making Nick O’Leary Seven Gates Tempranillo 2024 a brilliant all‑rounder for relaxed dinners and barbecues.
