Claymore Wines 2021 The Miseducation Of Carissa Major Tempranillo (6 Bottles) Clare Valley

$168.00 GST Included

AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

This little stunner displays inviting, subtle perfume of violets, autumn berries and rosehips, with some beautiful earthy mineral undertones. Delicate yet lifted, reminiscent of grandma’s rose bath oils with plum and savoury notes – a lifted, pretty aromatic style.

Primary varietal red fruit flavours show as soft, juicy lipstick red plum and wild rhubarb. While this is an extremely approachable little number, it possesses a persistent, savoury acid line and structure with an attractive and creamy mid palate weight. Youthful juicy sweet dark berry fruit, earthy forest floor complemented by leathery soft tannin structure and finish, this is a classic Clare Valley expression of Tempranillo.

As with its partner release, the Blackbird Sangiovese, this is all about artisan, small batch winemaking. Ferments that were hand plunged twice daily in small open fermenters before gentle basket pressing. Wanting the fruit to do the talking, only older oak is used for a 9-month maturation.

Named in honour of Claymore Wines’ General Manager this artisan release Tempranillo celebrates the idea that life is the best education one can possibly have. She’s not the shy retiring type – our new release temp is all frocked up and looking fab.

About Claymore Wines

Just over 20 years ago, Claymore Wines was humbly established with small volumes of Grenache and Riesling from a single vineyard in Penwortham. Since then, the estate has grown to include additional varietals and 44 hectares across three additional vineyards in Watervale.

At Claymore Wines, we enjoy bringing together life’s passions – wine, music, and football to create the ultimate experience. We pride ourselves on producing premium Clare Valley wines using the best fruit from our vineyards, but when it comes to enjoying a glass we don’t take ourselves too seriously. Many of our labels are inspired by either football or some of the greatest music of modern times. So turn up the volume, crack open a bottle and enjoy with friends.

The Claymore Wines team shares the passion for the fun side of wine and enjoys guiding visitors to our Cellar Door through the Claymore Wines experience.
